So, Ricky, are you happy now? You had one hell of a career, a great city to play for, and millions of adoring fans screaming your name. And now you have nothing. You left behind your great career, your great city, and your great fans all for some addictive and deadly grass you dope heads smoke because you have nothing better to do with your lives. Go ahead Ricky, smoke your weed, connect with your true self, and leave everything behind that you worked so hard to achieve. Just don’t come crying back to us when you realize that your misconceived sense of euphoria has left you because you ran out of dope to burn.

It’s easy to become philosophical when you think of Ricky Williams.

Oh, I’m sure people will have their theories about Williams. Some accuse him of being a pothead, and I definitely agree that this is widely accepted in the NBA, but it’s beyond that. Others, like the fantasy freaks, call him lazy and selfish. The masses will call him an unknown, who believes that he is beyond football.

He just wants want to do something more than carrying a football. (Sounds a little like unselfish Pat Tillman.)

And he might be a saint for it (not the New Orlean kind).

So Run Ricky Run… straight into retirement after 5 years. He says he just wants to be free and happy. A lot of people are muttering “jackasss!”, but in my humble opinion, he is making a great decision. There are only two types of people who can be mad at Ricky Williams for deciding to retire a week before training camp, the Miami Dolphins organization, including their fans, and any Fantasy Football owners who have already completed their draft. The rest are just jealous.
