While Henry hasn't been ordered to pay child support to Vanessa Colbert as of yet, she insists that he is, in fact, the father. This would bring his total to 11 children with 10 different mothers. The good news is that now he can field a football team.

The bad news is that he's currently behind in all of his court ordered child support payments, which total $15,000 a month. That's a tall order for a man who is currently in federal custody for violating his release order stemming from drug trafficking charges. But seriously, how's a guy gonna pay his child support if you take away his 11 pounds of cocaine?

It's all a hot mess. When you need a flow chart to keep track of your kids, you made a wrong turn somewhere. He still hasn't surpassed Calvin Murphy, who has 14 children by 9 women, but Henry's still young. He has a long life of unprotected sex ahead of him.

Travis Henry Explains How He Knocked Up All Those Women [Deadspin]

Amazingly, there's no rational explanation as to why Henry, the former Bills/Broncos/Titans running back, had all of those kids. Out of his nine children, he admits only one was planned. ONE. By the time he left the University of Tennessee for the NFL draft in 2001 , Henry already had three children with three different mothers. Even after he signed his contract with the Buffalo Bills, he maintained his prodigious barebacking, fertilizing most of North America's female population during that time period. Now, with the legal problems stemming from drug charges, his kids' insistence on eating and wearing clothes, and no NFL team left to pay him, Henry is completely broke. Henry still seems unconvinced that his baby-making problems are completely his fault. He says that some of the women lied about being birth-controled to trap him.

"I did use protection at first. Then they'd be saying they'd be on the pill. I was an idiot to trust them. Second or third time with them, I didn't use it. Then, boom!"

...Goes the fallopian tube.

Also of note: Henry's currently engaged, but he says that both he and his fiancée don't want any children. So, most likely, she'll be pregnant as soon the judge lets him have some of his money back.

Travis Henry Says He's Broke After Having 9 Children With Nine Women [NYT]

Henry wasn't in the car that was pulled over near Billings, Montana, recently which contained three kilograms of cocaine and six pounds of marijuana (value: about $75,000). The car was being driven by a courier who was being paid $5,000 to deliver the drugs to a buyer in Billings, and when he was pulled over by the Highway Patrol he immediately turned over on Henry, who was the "money guy" in Denver. From the affidavit:

According to CS-1 (cooperating suspect-1), Henry was the money guy and was owed the $40,000 in the robbery of customer 3. As a result, Henry was threatening CS-1 and his family, demanding that CS-1 repay the $40,000 lost by customer 3. According to CS-1, Henry said CS-1, CS-1's family, customer 3 and customer 3's family were all "dead" if they did not come up with the money.

And it goes on. Here's the affidavit (PDF).

Fun reading at first, until you realize a bit of the way through that it's all dramatically, depressingly real. It's tough to watch a fall from grace like that, no matter how much you think the guy may deserve it. Anyway, Travis Henry is in a world of trouble right now.

Travis Henry Arrested on Coke Charges; read The Affidavit Here [Latest Word]

DEA agents busted Henry for a "multikilogram cocaine transaction" (that sounds bad) and are holding him "pending the filing of federal drug charges" later today. (That sounds worse.) It's a pretty sudden and unfortunate turn of events for the former Pro Bowler, but hopefully this will be the catalyst that helps him work out that "consistency" problem.

NFL Source: Travis Henry Tests Positive Again [My Fox Colorado]
Report: Travis Henry Fails Drug Test [PFT]

Henry fired the first salvo in the case Sept. 20 when he attempted to get a restraining order in Suffolk County Supreme Court to block the NFL from using a urine specimen against him and to stop the league from disclosing the test results.

Court papers filed in the state court action couldn't be reviewed late Thursday, and Henry's attorney Robert Dapelo of Patchogue declined comment. But papers filed by the NFL on Monday in federal court suggested that Henry may have failed the test because the documents stated that Henry was trying to stop the league from testing his specimen and "suspending from his employment with the NFL."

Bronco Talk points out that Henry, if he were that desperate for the ganja, could have just waited a week and then smoked up after his test, which he should have known was coming. Alas. At least he's a little less fertile now; well, if he didn't pick out the seeds, anyway.
