Ricky Williams is back again?Posted by Kalk in Ricky Williams, Miami Dolphins |
Apparently, Ricky Williams is coming back.........again. After being suspended for failing drug tests--big surprise after he retired to live in Jamaica and smoke pot--he is back in the NFL. The 0-9 Miami Dolphins get this guy back. *waits for cheers but hears crickets instead*
While I realize that pot is less dangerous than some legal drugs--see cigarettes, alcohol--I don't believe that he is worth the risk. He is one failed drug test away from being banned for life. If I were a team owner, I would not be willing to take that risk and pay him anything. He could easily be out of theleague before playing a single game.
However, on some forums, I hear people saying that many teams would be happy to have him. I don't think teams would take the risk on this guy, even if they needed a decent RB. He has repeatedly shown that he doesn't care for his team, only himself--retiring after the draft, but before the season to go smoke pot; failing a drug test after returning for more money.
One person talking about teams that would take him was talking about Bill Belichick being able to tame Randy Moss. These are two different situations: Randy Moss, a guy with a bad attitude that demands the ball; and Ricky Williams, a guy that has completely ABANDONED his team shortly before the season began. He is a much bigger problem than Moss ever was.
