dolphin disaster????

ricky williams broke his arm in a cfl game. i am curious as to why the espn headline claims it as a "dolphin disaster. with an injury in a cfl game doesn't this let the dolphins off of any financial hook. i doubt they will ever get any bonus money back.

the USA should have a court that determines whether or not individuals who reach the age of 21 are capable of making decisions. if not capable they are given guardians who make all their decisions. this would create jobs and also allow people like williams to have a chance in life because there is no doubt how the court would have ruled on him.

A broken arm isn't a CEI, so it shouldn't prevent him from being available to the Dolphins once his NFL suspension is completed.

We don't need Ricky Williams.

Ronnie Brown is ninety times as pimp as Ricky will ever be.

When I read this thread title, I was worried about:

Daunte Culpepper
Zach Thomas
Jason Taylor
Chris Chambers
Ronnie Brown

Who gives a shit about Ricky Williams?

I would also think that the Dolphins would of taken out some kind of insurance policy on Ricky when he went up north.


If they did, there is probably some big party going on in Miami right now.

You mean ESPN overhyped something?

Eh, he can just take some of that money he stole from the Dolphins and hire some gangsta to hold it for him.

No kiddin'. A broken arm heals rather quickly and pretty solidly when compared to ACL, etc. He'll be completely fine when his suspension runs out.
