BADOLBILZ Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I had no idea that he was this productive off the field... last i knew he had 7 http://www.cnbc.com/id/41312370?slide=8 I thought the Steelers always got Dawson under contract cheap. Dirt money Dawson. The Bills needed that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Travis never won the Super Bowl, but it looks like he won the Breeder's Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Gianelli Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 They don't include the Bills as one of Marlin Briscoe's teams. From Wikipedia, "He led Buffalo in touchdown catches in each of his three seasons there and in receptions twice. In 1970 he was in the top two in receptions and receiving yards and became an All-Pro." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

/dev/null Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 what Travis could have done here long term. He could have helped with Buffalo's declining population Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLynchTrain Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Don't hate the playa, hate the game. Yet seriously, a shame Donahoe got wrapped up in Willis McGahee as one has to wonder had we drafted say Eric Steinbach or Dallas Clark instead what Travis could have done here long term. except donahoe probably saw what was on the horizon. i think at that time he had quite a few kids already and I believe he had failed a few drug tests. this has been hashed over a few times. Remember how quickly he was suspended in 05 for violating the drug policy? He had a few strikes against him already. Obviously the bills should/coulda/woulda went about it a little differently, like oh maybe trading a two time 1300+ rusher before the draft, but hindsight is always 20/20.

Red Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I liked the white pants with the blue jerseys. Don't know why they went to the hideous all blue thing... Pretty sure our scouting director does not actually make trades. Well he certainly hasn't drafted anyone of value for the past 10 years... either that or give her a facial blast...unless that is he didn't have the stamina to even get it out in time... 2 words: Laziness Stupidity Having anything like those numbers of children with so many different mothers signifies a definite mental deficit. I noticed a recurring theme on that list: "personally guaranteed loans". That is almost always a huge mistake if you are investing in some risky business scheme. It's one thing if you are starting your own business (doing something you know about) and will be working 80 hours a week to make it a success, but for guys like this to just toss out cash and then sign up for a big loan on top of it for some half-baked restaurant or real estate deal is just terrible. It's sad that these guys either don't get any intelligent advice or are too stupid to listen if they do. A-men! It's the domestic equivalent of falling for some idiot Nigerian scheme of suddenly being awarded millions...provided you send them all of your information to "qualify". Interesting, but how did I win if they don't already have my information? Traditionally it seemed that boxers were most hamstrung by economic stupidity. Figured they became too punchy, trusting some bottom-feeding scum bag to manage their winnings. Football is a dangerous sport with violent, high speed collisions. The research on concussions is well documented. But how can they be so blessed with athletic ability but suffer from a severe vacuum in between the ears? except donahoe probably saw what was on the horizon. i think at that time he had quite a few kids already and I believe he had failed a few drug tests. this has been hashed over a few times. Remember how quickly he was suspended in 05 for violating the drug policy? He had a few strikes against him already. Obviously the bills should/coulda/woulda went about it a little differently, like oh maybe trading a two time 1300+ rusher before the draft, but hindsight is always 20/20. And how sad was that? McGahee turned out to be a total douche, and as far as football on the field is concerned, minus his fumbling problems Henry was a bowling ball when he played for us. A tank! I was sad to see him leave. Then all of that "baby mama" idiocy came to light, and I said good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Blizzard Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Dear Travis, Next time, try a condom. For what it's worth, from a friend who's close to the team - Travis was dumber than a box of rocks. Hopefully his offspring inherit brains from their moms . .

RuntheDamnBall Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Loved Travis Henry the player....... Me, too. I thought nobody ran harder for a little while there. He always gave you effort. I guess someone must have told him the end zone was full of coke and tail. Don't hate the playa, hate the game. Yet seriously, a shame Donahoe got wrapped up in Willis McGahee as one has to wonder had we drafted say Eric Steinbach or Dallas Clark instead what Travis could have done here long term. He could have fathered a little league team in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess someone must have told him the end zone was full of coke and tail. He could have fathered a little league team in Buffalo. With 11 kids, he has half of a football team. What a great legacy to be remembered by. Maybe we can enshrine him here in Buffalo for building an entire generation of welfare kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
