    He gets tested 3 times a week for a reason. He's in a drug abuse program. Which means he was too stupid to simply play football for 8 years and retire when he could resume smoking weed for the rest of his life after making millions and millions of dollars by not smoking.

    Hahaha, this will be fodder for jokes against Miami fans for years to come. We have something to counter the fake spike comments with. Awesomeness.

    Legalize it, yeah-uh, yeah-uh
    & I-man will advertise it


    ..actually, if they ever do legalize it, Ricky could be the national spokesperson.

    I think the Marino spike is an NFL classic moment. Ricky getting "another suspension" is boring...

    You must be pretty desperate if you plan on using "another Ricky suspension" as your only ammo. My advice, keep searching instead of reaching....

    Later....

    I just find it hillarious how Phin fans forgave him, took him back, Saban gave him another shot...

    Boom. The Goncha.

    THANK YOU!..people act like he's such a horrible person

    would you rather work hard every week of the year and play a stupid game where you're the backup for a team

    OR would you rather do whatever you want, smoke some all the time > just have the time of your life?..

    i know what i'd take...

    ESPN disagrees.

    I guess we'll have to wait and see who's sources are right.

    That's a shame...after all that work to regain the organization, players, and fans' trust. He was running pretty well near the end of the season, too.

    Report: Williams appeals failed drug test

    NFL.com wire reports

    MIAMI (Feb. 21, 2006) -- Troubled running back Ricky Williams is appealing a positive drug test that could force the Miami Dolphins star to sit out the 2006 season, a person familiar with the case said.

    If the positive test result is upheld, it would be Williams' fourth violation of the NFL's substance-abuse policy, meaning at least a one-year suspension.


    According to one source, Ricky Williams isn't sitting this fight out.
    Previous positive tests were for marijuana, which Williams acknowledged using. But the latest test involved a drug other than marijuana, said the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because league policy is to keep test results confidential.

    The Miami Herald reported Feb. 20 that two sources said Williams failed a test for a substance not publicly known. His latest positive test was first reported Feb. 19 by Denver television station KDVR.

    A ruling on the appeal isn't expected until April. Williams, the 1998 Heisman Trophy winner and 2002 NFL rushing champion, is in India studying yoga and holistic medicine.

    "Ricky Williams has been in outstanding behavioral mode for the past six months. No one should jump to any conclusions," said Williams' agent, Leigh Steinberg.

    The Dolphins and the NFL declined to comment, citing the private nature of the league's drug program.

    Williams retired and sat out the 2004 season. He owes the Dolphins $8.6 million for breaching his contract, and motivated at least partly by the need for a paycheck, he returned last year to play for new Miami coach Nick Saban.

    Before being allowed to return, Williams served a four-game suspension at the start of the season for his third violation of the drug program.

    Despite the long layoff and a limited workload, Williams ran for 743 yards and averaged 4.4 per carry while sharing playing time with rookie Ronnie Brown. Williams gained 280 yards in the final two games when Brown was hurt.

    Saban and the Dolphins praised Williams' attitude, work ethic and leadership. Dispelling his reputation as an aloof, selfish pothead, Williams became such a model of good behavior that he was chosen co-winner of the local media's annual postseason Good Guy Award, given to the player most cooperative with reporters.

    Williams laughingly described himself as weird and compared his career to a roller coaster. Since returning last season, the NFL has required him to undergo drug tests up to 10 times a month.
