MERGED 100X:Ricky very close to coming back/790 Says Ricky Back/Ricky Coming Back!

Actually it makes perfect sense. Especially because we drafted Ronnie Brown. Now Ricky will come back in at worst a back-up role, at best a dual role. Ricky won't be depended on nearly as much, so even if his head or heart aren't in it, it won't affect the team nearly as much. (from an on-the-field stanpoint)
But if Ricky does come back at 100% and right his wrong, well, we all of a sudden have an embarrassment of riches in the backfield. Leaving us with lots of interesting options.

The ONLY negative I can see to taking Ricky back is purely psychological.


Thats what worries me. What if he quits again or fails another drug test? Anything that the team accomplishes on the field would be overshawdowed by our headcase rb. Not to mention the blame would fall on Saban. I hope i'm wrong but nothing Ricky does suprises me anymore, including if he came back, only to quit again. Last I heard he still had no passion for football and was still getting high. I won't lie, I loved watching Ricky play and will have my eyes glued to my tv if he comes back. It just seems like a very risky move.

And Kay Jay he's a freaking load as well. The Dolphins have one hell of a HB stable if Wicky comes back. It's freaking scary what this group could do to any D out there.

This should open up the passing game like never before. No matter who is in there at HB they will have to respect that and put 8 or 9 men in the box.

Is it July yet? :D

Totally agree we could go from a Sammy Morris/Travis Minor combo to Ronnie Brown/New Ricky Williams.. The best part about having Ronnie is, Ricky can tone down the carries like he wants but still get 10 quality rushes in a game.. I don't want Saban killing Ricky's Astro Body like Wanny did.

None of that would matter if they kept on winning. Ricky quiting would be overshadowed by the Fins.
 
I am sure he is coming back because of the $$ he owes Wayne. This is only the beginning of the story unfortunately, I just hope it does not overshadow any real progress the team is making.

Unless Saban has something up his sleeve, I think this is an awful move as well. MAYBE he can keep RopeWeed's head in the game long enough to play through an entire season, then trade him for something.

[Edited to include:] I mean, come on ... the guy absolutely F@#^ed the franchise last year, and we ask him to come back for another helping?!??
 
If this happends idk how I'll feel lol all i can say is I CAN'T WAIT TILL FOOTBALL SEASON!!
 
I am just as worried as all of you, but I think it is really a no-lose situation. If he comes back and returns to his playing ways, we all-of-a-sudden have the best backfield in the NFL. If he comes back and struggles or quits again, we still have Ronnie Brown who will be the new face of the franchise. I think Ricky will try to return to his old ways just because of the fact that Saban knows what he is doing(unlike Wanny) and his workload will be cut in half with Ronnie on the team.

"New" Ricky Williams? Whats new about him? I havent heard any apologies or admissions that what he did was wrong. Seems like the same ole Ricky to me. Until Ricky says or does something that indicates that he realizes his actions were wrong, I can't help but expect him to repeat them.

Also, Wanny didnt overwork Ricky, Ricky overworked Ricky. Ricky had the option to come out of the game anytime he wanted but instead asked for MORE carries. He also requested to be left in on 3rd downs. All the garbage about being overworked was just an excuse Ricky made up to try to dodge responsibility for his actions.
 
yey i get to where my jerseys again!!! i hope he comes back he will make our team better im not gonna say the ricky in 2002-2003 williams but he still knows how to run even if its from the planes, cops wat ever he runs from he still knows how to do it
 
I like Ricky Williams the player, just not Ricky Williams the person. He will have success in his comeback if he does few if any interviews and just sticks to playing the game.
 
You guys need to watch that 60 minutes interview again. I'd post the link, but it has some porno pop-pops at that site which a lot of folks wouldn't appareciate. Do a google search for "Ricky Williams 60 minute interview" and "joked"
 
Sign Traylor and all we seem to be missing if Ricky comes back is a FS to get into the playoffs if not more. Ik im being opptimistic here but I think Feeley should be able to get the job done with Ricky/Ronnie and Chambers Booker Boston and McMike.

The posts means nothing. Last week a new guy with less than 5 posts told us ALL about the Poole injury BEFORE it hits the press.

I don't believe this, but not because he has 3 posts. But because he is talking about Ricky Willams.
:yeahthat:

I think Feidler could get the job done with Ricky/Ronnie, Chambers, Booker, Boston, and McMike.:D
