Who Wants Ricky?

Ricky Williams was reinstated by NFL today, so he's free to rejoin the team that currently holds the running back's contract - the 0-9 Miami Dolphins. But indications are that the Fins don't want Ganga Boy back on their squad. And that they might be looking to trade Ricky.

I said it once before, and I'll say it again, the Bears should make a serious play for Williams. He's a proven hard-hitting runner who, thanks to these suspensions, doesn't have a whole lot of mileage on his legs. The guy could still be very productive in this league.

Sure he's can't say "No" to a puff of the weed, but it's better than crashing your Lamborghini and then lying to police or building a personal armory of unlicensed weapons in your suburban home. Comparatively, a little recreation drug use seems down right civil.

In any case, Williams would be light years better than Cedric Ben-stopped again for a 1-yard loss. 76 yards against the Oakland Raiders? Pathetic.

Come on Jerry Angelo. Make the deal.
