NFL to reinstate Williams

ESPN is reporting that Ricky Williams will be allowed to play this year should he serve out a 4 game suspension at the beginning of next month. This would allow him to continue the season. The deal made requires only Williams' approval.

Shoe the Dolphins in for a wildcard.

He's going to be rusty anyway, so I don't see the point in him playing for 2 games this season.

He probably won't be back this season.

My favourite part of the article:
"Williams is now about a month into a 17-month course at the California College of Ayurveda in Grass Valley, Calif., studying holistic medicine. "

Its almost too funny to be true :D

I dont know what to think of this...Ricky was my favorite runningback prior to retiring...Now I dont know if I'm "happy" for his return or not this year...

safe to say that irregardless of his return his days are finished as a Dolphin.

Didn't he say he wants to go to Oakland?

Ricky won't be back this year. The league is allowing him to use the last four games of this year as his suspension games, clearing him to play in 2005.

Didn't he say he wants to go to Oakland?Isn't there a minimum age to play there ? Something like 33-34 ?

its actually 32, but those are mostly backup players being broken in so they don't find themselves in too deep. The realistic age of a contributing member is around 34-36.

Yes, Raiders = Maple Leafs :joker:

He's studying at grass valley
:lol

they have justin fargas. he's only like 26!!!!!!! he is the matt stajan of oakland.

Thats pretty obvious. If I were a current member of the Dolphins, theres no way I want him on my team. Seems like the only reason he is coming back is to get $$$ to pay off his debts, and he might be running low on weed money too.

:lol

I knew somebody would catch that.

If he indeed does come back I say it takes him less than an hour to hurt his back and be done with Football forever.




Cha-Ching!
