Can one smoke up time after time…Live in a tree house and whatever else Ricky Williams has done, (please forgive me, I’ve lost track) only to be suspended by the NFL and then be reinstated. Yet once again Rick is on he’s way back to the NFL. Compliments of Roger Goodell! Now I don’t know about you, but I’m getting mixed signals from the commish! He has put his foot down on Chris Henry who has had a troubled past…Ditto for Pacman Jones, Michael Vick and Tank Johnson. Travis Henry impersonates Floyd Landis and his ass gets nailed to the cross, so then why does it appear Roger is marching to a different beat of the drum when it comes to the Pothead? Last time I checked, once a Pothead, well, always a Pothead!
I’m sure Rick got down on his knees and begged Goodell for forgiveness yet again, but how many lives does this cat get? I know they have nine, but hasn’t Williams exceeded the legal limit? Hell, before this whole little dog fighting incident, Vick got busted "allegedly" for a little secret compartment on a water bottle to hide his stash. What did Goodell do, he made like the NCAA is doing on the whole Reggie Bush taking money scandal…Swept it under the rug.
So let me get this straight, NFL players can smoke up as many times as they wish…Get the hammer dropped down on them only to in the future always know that they will be reinstated! And if they’re not, because of Ricky Williams, they’ll file a grievance with the league stating how come Ricky Williams gets third and fourth chances and I don’t?
The reality of all this is the fact that Goodell was put in a position yet again to set a precedence, set another standard in putting his foot down like he has always done in the past…Holding players accountable for their actions like he’s done so many times before! Instead, he chose for some reason to open up a can of worms!
Now will Williams services be welcomed by some NFL team? Does a whore sweat in church? You know they will…The question is by whom? Rick is still property of the Dolphins and there is no word what they will do with him. Although given the Floundering Fish’s predicament of losing Ronnie Brown the season and relying on Jesse Chatman to carry the load, one would think they’d take a good look at him once again. Or perhaps they’ll just release him ...If that’s the case and given the state of Larry Johnson in Kansas City or the lack luster running attack in Green Bay, one would think those would be viable options. Also with the state of Shaun Alexander perhaps Seattle? Maybe even Cleveland? However all this speculation hinges on if Cam Cameron decides to cut Mr. Pothead loose? Although at this point in the Dolphins season, I‘m thinking they’d welcome him back with open arms! They got bigger fish to fry than him!
So what will happen to Rick? Where will he end up? My guess is in some tree house after he violates the substance abuse policy yet again and makes Roger Goodell look like a F****** Idiot for reinstating him! God bless this country!! Only in America…Or should I say only in the NFL! Because if this was you or I at our average Joe Six Pack job, I’m thinking, now this is just a guess here that we no longer be working for Reid and Wright Inc.. Rather having to rely on our backup employment plan…Working at My Family's Nuts Store! Again, only in America… Don King, where you at bro!?!?!?
