Nice try. That is old, from when he was caught before his retirement. Lame.
Two different stories coming out of Denver right now . . . .

Report: Ricky Fails Drug Test ...
2006-02-19
Channel 7(WSVN - Miami), citing "a television station in Denver", is reporting that Dolphins running back Ricky Williams has failed another drug test. If true, Williams faces a one year suspension from the NFL.
The Dolphins have no comment at this time.
Then there is another story saying the Broncos and Miami are in trade talks regarding Ricky . . .
What's really wierd is one station is reporting a trade between Miami and Denver for Ricky, and another station from Denver is reporting that Ricky may have failed a drug test....something just seems weird about this coincidence.
Do they test in the offseason?
Why would a report come out of Denver of all places?

i have no clue if this "report" is truein the video r-will runs in a td from around 20 yards against the falcons. this past season he had 10 carries against the falcons including a 23 yard td
of course it could still be a hoax, but i do believe the video clip is from this past season

In all seriousness, if this IS true, and is current, then Ricky Williams has got to be one of the dumbest people around. They allowed him back when they didn't have to, and he repays them like this? Again, IF true, then his trade value goes to almost nil and Miami is stuck with him... (after he serves the 1 year suspension)

Starting to call BS on this.http://www.wsvn.com/news/main/sports/
That's WSVN's website (the direct source of the link in your post).
NOTHING about Ricky.
"A Denver television station"?
BS.

If this was real, some other station or website would be reporting it. No one has found a thing except this lame ### article from some obscure place with a clip that doesn't even go with the audio. The audio is from two years ago, the video clip is from last year. This is crap.
The point was the video was in fact from this past year...not from the previous year as you suggested. My other point was that you are obviously a Texas homer who is incapable of expressing an unbiased view.What does that have to do with anything? Moronic comment.
Anything else you need me to explain for you?
FWIW, I don't know if the report is true which is why I posted it as a question in the first place.

A report claims Dolphins' RB Ricky Williams has failed a drug test.
The report cites a TV station in Denver. If it's true, Williams would be suspended for the 2006 season. "Because of the confidential nature of the league's substance abuse policy, we can't comment on any aspect of that program," 'Fins spokesman Harvey Greene said. Williams was suspended for the first 4 games of the '05 season for testing positive. On the bright side, this is good news for Ronnie Brown owners. Feb. 19 - 9:28 pm et

Well, you dont know me so dont make stupid comments like you do. I have never defended Ricky and I wasn't trying to then, you just assumed I was. And you were wrong.The point was the video was in fact from this past year...not from the previous year as you suggested. My other point was that you are obviously a Texas homer who is incapable of expressing an unbiased view.What does that have to do with anything? Moronic comment.

If the report is true, it is true and that was a really stupid decision that he made and probably just effectively ended his NFL career and cost him a crap load of money.

Would it be too much of a Honda sentiment for me to wonder if the very long football offseason doesn't play into a lot of this stuff happening? There are apparently just a lot of guys who can't keep their crap in the offseason. Some of these guys have trouble in the season as well (see: Chris Henry), but it gets all the worse when they have nowhere to be and nothing good to do.

Well, come on, the first post was some garbled junk from an obscure site. If we beleived everything that gets posted here based off of some rumor from an uncredible site.....Like I said, I would beleive it when it was confirmed by a legitimate source, it was. I stand corrected and I am pissed.

No unlike Ricky, I adhere to the drug policy that my employer has established. The Air Force is a little more strict that the NFL unfortunately.

Why is he getting drug tested in the middle of Feb anyway?
