Lets just make this clear, when Ricky left our team in 2004, he left us high and dry. This time, no matter how much the media makes of all this, Ricky leaving does not impact our team much at all. Yeah, great depth, but let's face it, Ricky performed best last year when he got 20+ carries. And now Ronnie gets to show off the back that he is. No more rotation nonsense that look great on paper but not in execution.
I wish ricky did not do this to himself, again. But what I'm feeling right now is a far cry from what I felt the last time he left. The difference is our team is still in great shape. Maybe in even better shape practically since Ronnie will get the chance to fully blossom.
And let's not forget that Sammy Morris is a solid backup.
