i work as a web master for the NFL. i need u to give meyour thought when the word Ricky Williams comes to mind

Question

please be honest. thank you

Answer 1

He is a great player and very talented. He didnt make the decision the weed affected his brain and his thinking process. When i saw play in Miami he had the skills and talent to run all day and be a teams whole offense on his shoulder. Wasted talent he had great power and speed for the outside.

I think of him as a traitor. He left the Dolpphins because of weed. and then came back and did another drug. he isnt commited and have the love of the sport anymore. He plays football because he was tired of being broke.

Answer 2

Pete Rose.

A great athlete who's career was tarnished due to personal beliefs. Some say Ricky made 'stupid' decisions, just like they said about ol'Charlie Hustle. You can argue that either man hurt his team, but you can't argue that either man was given an unfair advantage in competition, like using steroids. That's what sports should be about, on the field competition. Charles Barkley said it best when he said "I'm not your roll model". Whether your Hank Aaron just trying to make the team, or Cassius Clay refusing to support an unjust war, politics sometimes finds it's way in sports.

Ricky Williams, in my opinion, got in trouble for being Ricky Williams. Yes, Marijuana is illegal in the United States...I guess that means 'God' and/or Mother Nature, make a mistake? Ricky Williams doesn't think so, but maybe he should have chosen another way to go about it. Maybe he should have stayed clean, and kept his fight in courts. Would we be talking about it as much if he did? I guess in the long run, Ricky Williams lost. Heck, even Pete Rose accepted his MLB ban....only to later be honored for it. I can only hope Ricky enjoys the same fate.

My final comment. The alcohol ban epidemic occuring in MLB clubhouses also reminds me of Ricky Williams. Inside almost any Major League Baseball Clubhouse in the past, you've been able to consume alcohol. Kinda makes you think doesn't it? If Ricky Williams can't go home, after practice, and smoke a joint while playing Madden '07.....how come other professional athletes can consume a man made drug before, during, and after a game? And to tell me they didn't, is like saying a child never puts his hand in a cookie jar before dinner.

Answer 3

Honestly i think wasted talent, he could have been a top running back in the game but he had to piss it away for weed, i mean come on Ricky there is a time and a place and it isn't while you are a player in the NFL. He should have just played 10ys or so THEN be a pot head.

Answer 4

Pothead-although hopefully meditation really has changed that.
Wasted Potential- he is playing football because he has a contract and for the money. Imagine if he was playing because he WANTED to.
Last thought is that I hope he isn't allowed back in the NFL. Even if he isn't smoking pot anymore I think that playing because he has to would be a good reason not to let him back in. Plus the team might not be allowed to go after him when it is the NFL not letting him play.

Answer 5

First, he did drugs, so that's a negative.
Second, he is a good tailback whenever he's not on drugs.
Third, he wants to come back to the NFL, so I'm not sure whether or not he's going to do drugs again or if that's a sign of recovery.
Finally, I don't think Miami is going to take hem back when they've got Ronnie Brown and other good tailbacks that I can't name right now. The San Fransico 49ers could use a good backup to Frank Gore. The Green Bay Packers could use a good backup to. So once again I don't think Miami will take him back.

Answer 6

You want honest? Here goes. You are a liar I believe because with your grammar I can tell that you never made it beyond 9th grade in High School, so I know that you definitely aren't working for the NFL in any capacity, especially as a Web Master.

Answer 7

Crazy.

Here's a guy that Mike Ditka foolishly traded our entire draft to get. He puts on a wedding dress and takes pictures with Mike Dikhead. Two years later we ended up drafting Deuce and thank God because Williams went to Miami, had one good year and then ran off in the mountains to get blunted. He then starts saying stuff like "Ricky doesnt want to play football anymore" and "Football feeds Ricky's ego". What the hell? This guy is weird as weird can get.

Answer 8

Honestly, i think of a player that has great potential but has wasted a lot of his prime with retiring early and testing positive 4 times. I don't know how you can lead the league in rushing one year and then go to getting suspended for testing positive again. He is a bust in my opinion. Exept instead of him just not having what it takes to be a good player in the NFL, he has what it takes, he has just ruined his opportunity up this point and he is starting to exit his prime years in age.

Answer 9

He got the cash, he didn't care about football, so he left and did drugs. He ran out of cash, and compliments of drugs he had too many munchies and now he wont make it in the NFL. He does not deserve to. Its a shame that he walked away on his team the way he did, because that really affected the team in many ways. Just leave the NFL Ricky, you had your chances, I dont want to hear about your reinstatment anymore.

Answer 10

He's a really good running back that is a victim of draconian American drug laws.
So he likes smoking a little weed now and then ,So what ?
The simple fact of the matter remains that the deadliest drug in America is the one that is legal , readily available and cheap.
