    It looks like Ricky Williams will never play football again.

    He still doesn't think he should have to pay all those millions back to the Dolphins, but something tells me he's going to end up coughing it up.

    He is dumb not to have accepted reinstatement, at least keep his options open. Of course, why should we be surprised he is doing something dumb

    If Ricky really wanted to not go out like a jerk he would have:

    1. Accepted re-instatement
    2. Served his four game suspension this year
    3. Re-Negotiated his contract down to the league minimum in exchange for not having to pay back the $8.6 million
    4. THEN retire or let the Dolphins waive him

    Everybody wins. Right now, nobody wins.

    RW's antics make long for the typical selfish greedy athlete; TO, Deion, Allen Iverson, Vince Carter, etc...

    At least, their motives aren't quite so (dare I say) hazy.

    I dont think hes a moron but I do believe him to be chemically imbalanced....at this point, Im not mad about the retirement, Im still ticked about the timing though....does California have a Baker Act law?

    After seeing beef's tagline (There are two kinds of blind people in this world, those that can not see and Eagles fans....), I have a rather serious question.

    Are there any optometrists in Philly or have they all relocated to Scranton & Harrisburg???

    Actually, the proper response to that question, nflfan04, would have been: "I haven't SEEN any." [​IMG]
