Everyone is saying Ricky QUIT on this team.... Now Ricky as we all know has a social anxiety disorder. That would drive him to not want to face his team and say I screwed up and I won't be with you the first 4 games. By him not having the ability of facing the team, without a nervous breakdown, in his head desides to get away from it all.... typical of someone with S.A.D. (like my lil 17 yr old sister).. He in turn serves his punishment of 4 games without having to deal with the horror around himself throughout that term by " retireing". He & his agent figured the loopwhole in the system... Now, having that he never lost his love for the game, wants to get back into it like he was suppose to....after 4 games.
His comments he made and the multipule reasons for his retirement were, IMO, made in a total panic. I don't think he's lost it, I don't think he's gonna give up. He has a disease....one that leads his mind to think this is the best way to handle things.... I agree it was not but I don't think the majority of fans, media or even his friends know how difficult the disorder is.....
Are you Leigh Steingberg?

The truth is that it's like pleading insanity and now he won't be held accountable for what he's said and done under this scenario due to his disorder. It's possible but why did he get off the paxil then? Why did he make all of those comments through LeBatard? How do we know he just isn't showing up so he doesn't have to pay the money? I don't want him on this team if you can't count on him.
