Most of you realize already that a decision like Ricky's, made hastily, has to be one that he may change his mind about someday. Why not give him a new contract and make that someday today? I realize it's not cool what he did, and it's a bad precedent to reward bad behavior, but Ricky just singlehandedly flushed your season down the crapper. If I were the fins I'd pull out the checkbook and see just how retired he really is. And before you dump on this think about this point: none of you know just how angry he may be about having to pay that pot fine- a new deal with an extra say 600K for this year might go a long way towards changing 'ol Ricky's thinking. Sure as h$ll it's worth a try, isn't it? But no doubt I'd also have behavior clauses in a new deal that requires him to stay clean AND not even threaten retirement again or the deal is voided.
