Re: Ricky Williams Suspended

I actually feel bad for the guy. He made some boneheaded moves, no doubt. But he came into the league with that personality disorder, had a ton of pressure from Ditka and the Saints trading virtually their entire draft for him, and imploded. Keep in mind he never bad mouthed anyone during this process. He honestly talked about not wanting to play football and everyone jumped all over him for it. The marijuana use was stupid, but if the league suspended him for another year, after he made all of that process and adjustment to league life, based on a technicality... that's equally stupid. Having been put through the works like that, if he comes back, it's because he really wants to, and I for one would be excited to have him back up Portis.
