Aaron Veteran Posted July 25, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 25, 2005 SOURCE DAVIE, Fla. -- Back in the Miami Dolphins' backfield Monday, Ricky Williams made all the right moves. First, he showed up.Advertisement Then he reached the end zone on his first carry, smiled at cheering fans, apologized for leaving the team in the lurch, said he was done with dope and calmly submitted to a media interrogation regarding his surreal one-year retirement. One question -- the first one -- momentarily stumped him, though: Why did he return? "Why? Why? I don't know. I don't know," he said. Uh-oh. This roller-coaster ride still seems a little rickety. Not sure if I'd take a chance on this guy, but I understand why they are. Check out his latest look, fashion consultants are calling it the "stinky bum under the bridge look" - it's all the rage. :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 hmmmmmm, after a year of smoking pot and practicing whateve he was practicing, he gets re-accepted? That is BS, too many others dying to get a shot and they let his ass back in? (N) i saw the special on him on 20/20 he lived in sacramento CA (my hometown) when he was finding himself :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circaflex Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 i remember that 20/20 segment, the guy is pure trash. He throws away making millions to go and smoke pot? The way i see it he was like this, pot? or millions? pot? or millions? i choose the ganga!! Complete waste of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete waste of talent. 586271138[/snapback] Not only that he let his team and his coach down. he doesn't deserve re-acceptance. How do they know if he won't pull another stunt like that again. I mean they ask him why and the dude can't give a clear answer, real mature ricky real mature (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted July 26, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 26, 2005 i agree. he had the opportunity of a lifetime, and he quit. for drugs. if i was on the dolphins, i would not accept him as a teammate. he doesn't deserve this. if he does play, i hope he gets rocked.

djsaad1 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 i hope he comes back and becomes the best players in the nfl, then does some type of advertising blitz showing kids how much drugs can screw up your life, and its never to late to quit the drugs.

Smitjel Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Doesn't matter...Ronnie Brown is the better back anyway. I hear the pothead is down to 210lbs...how does he think he's going to make it at runningback at 210lbs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imtoomuch Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I think it shows the state of NFL. It's getting to be like the NBA where criminals reign supreme. The Dolphins were stupid for taking him back. He's only in it so he doesn't have to pay them the 8 million dollars or whatever it was that he would owe from breaking his contract. I hope you Dolphin fans aren't getting excited and seeing him as the savior of your team. It's not going to happen. He's a scumbag and now he even looks the part.

mattmatik Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I can't believe this is the same guy that I used to watch in awe of when he played at Texas. Back then, the guy was not only dominating on the field, but he just seemed so professional. I remember how much admiration he had for Doak Walker and how much the history of college football meant to him. Now he seems like a self-centered, arrogant jackass who has no identity of himself and zero comprehension of what it means to be a part of a team. It's amazing and at the same time sad. I hope he gets his life sorted out because I saw the same thing happen to Dennis Rodman...and I don't want to go down that road again, watching someone throw their life away.

Laughing-Man Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 (edited) Ha this is a perfect photoshop image for FARK, I think I am goint to submit it. He looks rediculous. It looks like he was stranded on a deserted island for months without human contact. I am 99% sure that he is going to get leveled by some defensiveman this season and have some sort of minor injury like a sprained foot. He will whine about it like a little girl and then will retire again. He has that kind of attitude. Edited July 28, 2005 by jmole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protoss_chaos Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 as a Miami fan i am both pleased, and dissapointed by this move. He probably will help them, but who knows if he will even stay. The NFL used to be about both physical ability and character, but it seems character is no longer needed in sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
