The issue being challenged by Henry is that the NFL would not allow his expert to observe the testing of the "B-sample." Although the collective bargaining agreement permits a player to have an expert present for the testing, Aiello said that expert cannot be affiliated with any laboratory. The expert presented by Henry did have such an affiliation.

The league provided Henry with the names of 10 independent experts as reference for his potential use.
It's like having your real state agent refer you to their preferred inspector. I hope this absurdity won't be upheld in court.

I kind of doubt the NFL was out to get Travis Henry or give him a bogus expert. He got busted and I can't imagine the injunction holding up in court for any extended period of time. The clock is ticking on this dudes career. On a somewhat related note, what happens to his massive child support payments when he is kicked out of the league? Is he still liable? This guy is beyond screwed.

I don't think the NFL is out to get him but still...it's the principle of the matter that concerns me not what happens Henry.

Does this guy really have 9 kids with nine different women. In most states child support is based off income and he can always (in most states) file for a court hearing (9 in his case) to have his payment reviewed. In VA they have a formula which is used so its a set way in all cases.
