Ricky Williams has been reinstated in the NFL following an 18-month ban for smoking pot, a retirement, a spiritual journey to India and Australia, and a one-season flirtation with the CFL (not necessarily in that order). I'm not sure if he ever got that holistic medicine education in Colorado or not, but he definitely considered it.
The league said Williams can begin attending team meetings and practicing immediately, but will not be able to play in a game until Miami, currently winless, plays at Pittsburgh on Monday night, Nov. 26…
Williams rushed for 3,225 yards in the 2002 and 2003 seasons after being traded to the Dolphins from New Orleans. He then retired in 2004… before returning to the Dolphins in 2005, when he ran for 743 yards alternating with rookie Ronnie Brown.
My God, I'd rather buy a house on a fault line than invest in hopes that this turns out well. It's like the Jurassic Park of running back experiments. Seems like a good idea scientifically, then nature takes over and Newman from Seinfeld gets eaten by the spitting dinosaur. Oh yeah and the Dolphins go 0-16.

Yes sir, these are my Miami Dolphins.
If the Phins go 0-16, I'll be perfectly content with them remaining as the lone undefeated season in NFL history; assuming the Pats go down, well, you know where, and take care of business. Losing that is. IS there a winless team in history? I can't seem to remember for some reason….. WAS can you help me find my memory?
I'm smoking a blunt in celebration of the 4 to 5 weeks before he gets the permanent boot.
Fuck it what is it week 11 now. I'm setting the over under at week 13 1/2.
Poor Dolphins. Gonna go winless the same year the Patriots join their '72 squad amongst the undefeated. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?
Didn't Tampa go winless one year?
Matt, you should have saved this story and posted it at 4:20.
@JWK, the Bucs went 0-14 their first year and 0-12 their second year before they won any games. They finished 2-12 their second year.
At least my team has a won a few games this season, and we even have a Texas runningback with dreds! Coincidence? You decide.
Yeah, Tampa did go winless, their first season I think. Prompting the greatest NFL post-game exchange of all time.
Reporter: So coach, what do you think of your team's execution?
John McKay: I'm all for it.
Well, now I'm hungry. I think I'm gonna go to White Castle.
His reinstatement to the Dolphins is the second phase of his punishment.
That is obviously not Rex Grossman. He would go by Sex Cannon if it were. Cedric Benson sucks Ruvall Martins ballsch.
I wish SExy Rexy were here right now so I could learn the tricks of the Cumslinger. My envy runs core deep.
Sub-Zero versus Ricky Williams
Round 1: Fight!!!
Sub-Zero attempts a high kick, but ricky dodges with a swift Juke.
Ricky Counters with a blunt throw. Sub-Zero quickly presses L1 to blockthis attack.
Ricky then swings his dreads and wraps around Sub-Zero.
Sub-Zero struggles to release himself from such grease and scummy hair.
Sub-Zero then Freezes Ricky as Ricky is caught rolling a blunt with Travis Henry.
Roger Goodell reveals himself as the "creepy voice" of Mortal Kombat and suspends both Ricky and T-Hank results in another win for Sub-Zero. no FATALITY!!! though
I like the picture of Ditka. Didn't those two get married?
Remember in Jurassic Park 2 when that 12-year old black chick flipped off a bar and knocked out Merk's avatar? I do.
How sad that my reaction to the excellent 289 photo went like this … "Really? There are 4 teams worse than my Raiders? That's awesome!"
Bring on the Savior-less Vikings!
That clown should go back to Canada and play hacky sack with his draft dodger pals.
"Oh yeah and the Dolphins go 0-16."
Stop, you're getting me hot.
Godflocks, don't forget my favorite McKay quote:
Reporter–What do you think is wrong with your team?
McKay–Well, we can't block and we can't tackle……other than that we're in great shape.
Ricky's reinstatement > my reinstatement
Also…Reporter – What do you think of your team's execution?
McKay – I'm all for it.
Sorry Godflocks. I'm a dope. (And Ricky's ON dope – take that, late Henny Youngman!)
McKay was awesome. Here are some quotes from the Tampa paper:

So why is this place called "With Leather"? Does it have something to do with football. Sorry, I am new. :(
Actually, it's more like "Without Laughter", don't you guys ever smile?
Big deal – the way Cedric Benson runs the balll, he has to be totally baked.
Ricky a consensus number one in ESPN's fantasy weed smoking league.
anyone see nfl live today?
trey wingo summed up his 18 month ban from the nfl and at the end he did a nice job of pointing out it ended in "the appropriately named Grass Valley,Califorina"
Good to hear it! I am his big fan! It is said he is single now! His profile was found on millionaire dating site last week!
