Yep thats right......Ricky Williams will return to the Dolfins line-up after serving a four game suspension next month.
Williams, 27, retired during the summer, giving up the $5 million he would have earned this season, which would have been his sixth in the NFL, amid reports he faced the suspension for substance abuse. Williams is now about a month into a 17-month course at the California College of Ayurveda in Grass Valley, Calif., studying holistic medicine.
The Dolphins' season pretty much was ruined by Williams' sudden retirement. The star runner was the focal point of Miami's offense and the Dolphins, also ravaged by injuries, are 1-9 without him. They will have their first losing season since 1988 and Dave Wannstedt resigned as coach earlier this month.
The team filed a lawsuit last month in federal court against Williams after an arbitrator ruled he owes the team more than $8.6 million for breaching his contract.
Williams rushed for 3,225 yards in two seasons with the Dolphins, including a league-leading 1,853 yards in 2002. They acquired the 1998 Heisman Trophy winner in a trade with New Orleans after the 2001 season.
Throughout his career, Williams has been plagued by strange behavior, including conducting interviews with his helmet on when he was with the Saints. He suffers from social-anxiety disorder and was a spokesman for an anti-depressant. He said marijuana helped him once he had to stop using the anti-depressant because it didn't agree with his diet.
Williams found laughable reports he retired because he wanted to continue smoking marijuana.
This should make thinks interesting next season. |

| First off, the Dolphins will not be playing him. They will probably tell him to clean out his locker and wait til he gets traded to another team. What sucks for the Dolphins is although hes a running back that can produce, they wont get the same value player as he is - they will have to settle for something not as good. |

I think Ricky will definitely prove that a pot-smoker isnt everything everyone makes them out to be. He'll still shred defenses.
Its not what u smoke, but what u do while your NOT smoking! |
