There is a report that Dolphins' running back Ricky Williams has failed a drug test in April ... which means his reinstatement to the NFL looks a bit dicey. So dicey that Ricky's NFL career may be over. The report says that he tested positive for the hippie lettuce again and doctors who've been monitoring him during his 'recovery' are recommending that the NFL should just say no to his recent application to reinstatement.
Sorry, but that just shows how much of a pot head he is. I mean, you must play because you owe a ton of money to the Dolphins if you don't. Yet, you are magically banned from the league for a year because you violated the league's substance abuse policy [he could've just missed a test; it's not an outright positive result] and while you are ready to get back in the league's good graces, you test positive for weed. Dude can't stay off the broccoli, even if his career depends on it! Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins are trying to keep him sober enough that they can get their money's worth from him before washing their hands of him.
If he wants to be a pot-head, fine. Do your yoga; keep living off the land; grow your beard as much as you want. But stop screwing around with everyone. We all know that the dank is a banned substance in the NFL and if you really want to play you must keep your lips off the joint. C'mon, Ricky! The old regime in Miami was willing to work with you but the current one seems rather passive. You really gotta work at this one.
In reality, Williams will be able to apply for reinstatement in September if he can find away to stay clean. Even if he does, will he be granted his reinstatement? And if so, will Miami want him around? Last month [on 4/20, I might add] I wrote that the Dolphins should just cut their losses with Ricky and fans called me dumb for thinking so. Dumb is relying on a pot-head to do the right thing even if he really wants to.
