Ha. Good luck trying to swing your "false positive" excuse again.

A highly placed source in the NFL told Fox 31 sports reporter Josina Anderson that if Henry failed the test that the troubled player would be "up for a suspension".

This comes after Henry had successfully appealed a positive test taken prior to last season. Claiming the test was a "false positive", Henry won his claim against the NFL, though as part of the agreement he remained in the NFL's substance abuser program.

Earlier this spring the Broncos released Henry stating that the former Bill and Titan was "too inconsistent as a person. When you're too inconsistent as a person, you usually aren't going to win championships."

When the source was asked if Henry knew of the positive test, he replied, "I was told this result is recent. [Henry] should already be informed. If he didn’t know, he knows now."

There isn't much more to say that hasn't been said the other times Henry has tested positive in a league drug test. Stupid. Cocky. Can we get him the hell out of the NFL already? I suppose he's almost there.

I know this news is a bit dated this afternoon but we've had so many laughs at Travis Henry's expense that I figured we need to post something about his release.

Running back Travis Henry was released by the Broncos this morning because coach Mike Shanahan said he questioned Henry's commitment. The Broncos opened a team minicamp today at Dove Valley, and the roster was updated this morning without the seven-year pro.

Said Shanahan in a release: "We did not feel his commitment to the Broncos was enough to warrant a spot on this football team."

It will never cease to amaze me the number of people in this world who blow once in a lifetime opportunities. Despite earning millions of dollars, we know that Henry has a huge monthly child support bill and conceivably no way to earn an income at the moment. He's gone from future NFL star to regular dude with money issues, all in the course of a couple of seasons. Ouch.

• In the Bahamas, his home country, Kansas City Chiefs WR Devard Darling is a big deal.


• A local KC area beer vendor wrote a book about his experiences. Any beer vendor blogs out there?


• Speaking of beer vendors in KC, I went to the Royals game last night. In the third inning or so, a woman passed out All-Star game ballots, which she would pick up in a few innings. I grabbed mine and immediately started smelling the newly printed paper and ink, which I don't feel like I'm alone in doing. I glance up at the monster high def screen they have at Kauffman Stadium only to see myself with my face buried in my All-Star ballot. I did the customary, "Where is the camera?!?!" head swivel before everyone else laughed.


• Stripe Hype, a Cincinnati Bengals blog, is being threatened with a lawsuit by the Cincinnati Bengals.


• Hashmarks says that RB Travis Henry may be out in Denver, depending on whether or not the team brings another running back on. If Henry is cut, he'll actually have the time to make all of children's visitations.


• Bob Kravitz of the Indy Star -- "What do any of us really know about what went down -- or didn't go down -- last week in Harrison's childhood neighborhood in Philadelphia?"


• A lot of people were clamoring about drafing OG Eric Young out of Tennessee. I believe I even saw a few mock drafts with him going in the 5th round. Well, he was waived by the Browns yesterday, after a brief flirtation with the NFL. He may be back somewhere else but I wanted to point out how fans group think can accelerate so quickly without rhyme or reason.

I believe it was swift who asked for an updated list of the undrafted free agents (UDFA) the Kansas City Chiefs had signed. Here are the 17 initial UDFA signings, which were announced on May 2.

WR Jabari Arthur, WR Sean Bailey, K Connor Barth, FB Mike Cox, G Ian-Yates Cunningham, DE Johnny Dingle, S Ron Girault, CB Maurice Leggett, DT Derek Lokey, G Chris McDuffie, RB Kalvin McRae, DT Maurice Murray, LB Steve Octavien, DE Jason Parker, DE Jonal Saint-Dic, QB Ricky Santos and WR Luke Swan.

The Chiefs invited over 40 players to their rookie camp this past weekend, in addition to the players listed above. The only new signing I've come across is Arkansas LB Weston Dacus, who was invited to camp without a contract and left with a two-year deal.

More to come later today.
