Williams Ready For A Comback

Tom Schaller wrote to me wondering why everyone wants to have a group hug with Ricky Williams. Maybe it is because he has the fat bag Tommy. Guilty as charged, remember how I, myself, gave Ricky the benefit of the doubt and let's not judge until we know the whole deal, blah blah blah. Well it looks like we know more now. When Ricky's bag is down to stems and shake somewhere around this time next year, Williams told SI that he would like to return and play for The Raiders. Oakland of course is only a car ride away from Humboldt County.

And he may not be free to go to the Raiders, regarldless of any of that.

When Barry Sanders left the Lions while still under contract, it was determined that if he came back, he would have to fullfill the remainder of his contract with the Lions. He remained contractually obligated to them. Any years spent in retirement would be treated as nothing but a break in service.

Ricky has screwed himself, and he's too stupid to know it.

Tom Hall:

Nonetheless, Raiders fans like myself can't wait to have another druggie on the team! With ecstacy-popping Darrell Russell gone forever, drunk kicker Sebastian Janikowski straightening up his life and pill-popping center Barrett Robbins waived, we need Ricky to fill the void! Committment to excellence, baby!

Too bad about the retirement and the suspension. RB is our one week spot this year (no, I'm not being sarcastic).
