Guess who failed his 4th drug test? Guess that's why it's called dope. ???

LoL. After I failed for the 8th time, I decided: "I'm never going to make to Junior Varsity team!"

ricky williams just looks like a stoner, even if he never used drugs :D

The thing that gets me about this is the total acceptance of alcohol as a totally okay thing to do for professional atheletes...I am not condoning Ricky's pot smoking, but seriously...don't we think drinking is just as bad of an example to send to kids?

Ok. Off my high horse....time for a martini and a hit or two... ;)

My bf is from FL and is a HUGE Dolphins fan.....he usually know's all this news before I do and now I have something I can know before him...anyway......I've said all along that the Fins should have NEVER taken him back in the 1st place. He was an embarrassment to the team in the 1st place. Everyone knew there was no way he'd make it again. They should have never let him come back and just let some other team get him and become their headache. Good Ridance to him. Hopefully Nick Saban and all the other Fins leaders and teammates will learn from this mistake.

Apparently not, if they're activeley pursuing TO. At least Ricky "Munchies" Williams would be mellow, compared to the two-legged ego trip ::)

Lol that's too funny...after I posted my reply I was telling my bf what was going on and he was telling me about them looking at TO and I told him that was just as bad.........do they really think they can make a difference on TO's attitude? Do they really think he's gonna change? As soon as he becomes unhappy with the Fins he'll start that crap over again...

One major difference foxx. Marijuana is illegal alcohol is not.

Society does tend to shrug off people with alcohol problems. You wouldn't expect the NFL to take a stand on drinking would you? A lot of commercials are alcohol related during the games. After all what would we do without the twins. :P

Others would argue that parents should be the role models for kids not athletes. Some food for thought.

what would any kind of football be without beer? lol there must be about twenty beer commercials alone during just a regular game as well.

RuLeR · March 07, 2006, 06:50:01 PM

He kept quiet when he quit the dolphings obviously I think when he played for texas back then a few of the football players got him hooked up on drugs. Oh well was one of the best running backs in the game now he is just a sad guy who has thinking problems. How many dam drug test does this guy need to get off the dam football feild lol.

Personally, I think it's silly. It's not like the dude is taking performance enhancing drugs. It's WEED for crying out loud. Give the dude a Twinkie and throw him the football and leave him alone.

Just my opinion.

Your saying don't drug test him when he has been caught numerous times. Leave the guy alone lol? geez lets not drug test Jose Cansenco back then lol.

Naw, test him.. Test everyone.. But if it's just weed? Then I don't think anyone should be tossed from the team or game or whatever. If he tests positive for cocaine or other performance enhancing drugs? THEN toss him.

Again, just my opinion. (NFL? Call me.)
