Ricky Williams Takes it to the House

I may be alone, but I am glad he is back and playing again. He is a head case but a great athlete. I couldn't stomach to watch the Dolphins play last year without him.

He's going to have to be damn good to win the starting job. Especially considering he will miss the first four games.

I think Ronnie Brown would have to be pretty impressive in those first four games to win the starting spot from Williams. I could see it happening though, Brown was a stud in college.

i've also always had good luck running against no defense. hey those last 2 words remind me of the packers.

Yeah, I can stomach watching the Dolphins now that Dave Whinestadt is gone!

He looks so much thinner! That guy used to be a tank. I hope he added some speed, because there's no way he'll be able to run as physically as he used to with that body.

Think i read somewhere that he is only 13 lbs. below his old playing weight. ( 5 of that is probably from the hair cut )

That dude definitely baked his brain. He was fun to watch in his day, but doubt he will have much of a comeback. If he comes out of the gates strong (after his 4 game suspension that is when Ronnie Brown will be given the feature back role). He might have a chance, but I don't think his brain will allow him to pick up where he left off, especially if his role is at backup. He can't be effective without 25-30 carries a game.
