Rasta Ricky Williams

Dude, you're not going to believe this but Ricky Williams retired from the NFL so that he can smoke reefer and not worry about being tested. Rumor has it that he recently failed a drug test and was about to be suspended.

BTW, did you hear that the Cowboys just cut Quincy Carter for failing a team administered drug test? That means that they are going into the season with Vinny Testeverde as their starter. Dallas is going to be an interesting team to watch. They are either going to be a very solid veteran team or a buch of over the hill has beens. Their offence consists of Vinny at QB, Eddie George at RB and Keyshaun Johnson at WR.

Hell, it wouldn't supprise me if they tried to pick up Tim Brown. He just got waived by Oakland. He's only 38. Speaking of Tim Brown, remember when he was at Notre Dame and they played A&M in the 86 Cotton Bowl? Good ole Warren Barhorst (for the younger Coop bros, this guy grew up in Rolling Fork) was on the 12th man and he stole Tim's towel on a return, then Tim tried to kick his ass on National TV. That was awesome!

As for Iron Mike, he apparently ripped his ACL in the first round. You have to give the guy some credit. He continued to fight for 3 more rounds when most of us would have curled up in the fetal position and cried like a bitch. Some sleazy promoter is going to use that as an excuse for the loss, try to convice the public that Mike is still dangerous and trot him back into the ring until he gets carried out in a stretcher. Hell, what else is the dude going to do. He's only made like $350 Million in his career and is still $38 Million in debt.
