Every once in a while, there are athletes who come along and say “you know what?… all this money, all this fame, the opportunity to inspire people… all this can go to hell…. I wanna get F-CKED UP!!!!”

We have two clear cases this offseason.

*Travis Henry*
-Travis has 9 children by nine different women.
-Travis is having financial difficulties, so he borrowed money from the Denver Broncos to pay child support.
-Travis failed numerous drug tests, including one last season.
-The Denver Broncos could have just fired him, instead they got his back and helped him stay in the league.

So what does Travis Henry do this offseason? He bit the hand that fed him (word is he faked an injury because he was upset at the Broncos for demoting him)… Denver got fed up and Fired hiim.

How many NFL teams are going to RUSH to give a multimillion dollar contract to a weedhead with attitude problems? … See ya at Kinkos Trav…

==========

*Cedric Benson*

-Much like Travis, Benson also has attitude problems.
-Cedric Benson didn’t want to split carries and played a role in Chicago getting rid of Thomas Jones (who was the better running back).
-Once Cedric got his wish as the featured running back, he did nothing all season long.
-After the season ends, Cedric gets arrested for boating while intoxicated, and proceeds to make a big fuss about how he suffered police brutality. The Bears publicly defend their player.
-Two weeks later, Benson is arrested on a DUI and removes all doubt that his previous arrest was probably justified.

As it stands now, Cedric Benson has a great chance of being released from his contract. If that happens, he’ll be in the same spot as Travis Henry. At least Travis can say he’s a great running back though, Cedric is just a bust so far.
