ESPN 30 for 30: Ricky Williams ("Run Ricky Run")

That was very well done and brutally honest. Seems like he is getting close to finding the happiness he has been searching for all these years.

My wife and I actually spent quite a bit of time with him while he played baseball in this area. My wife stayed friends with him years after that. He was always a bit different and you could tell he was lost at the time. Always had trouble trying to fit in. He didn't see color but always felt he had trouble fitting in with the "white crowd" or the "black crowd" and was very hesitant to let people close to him.

I remember a day or two before the draft he called and spoke with my wife about his anxiety with where he was going to wind up. He was worried that Philly might draft him and he was't sure he would be able to deal with playing there. Going to N.O might have been bad for him but I think Philly would have been much worse.

    • Panthers are down by 2 TDs at half. Mike White is brought in in the 3rd and Panthers win by 30
    • The Dolphins are the example of not tieing a team to an overrated QB who can't carry a team. They were so stacked and watched most of their talent go elsewhere so they could pay a mediocre and hurt starting QB too much money. They looked so good beating up bad teams at their peak and couldn't hang with any of the other playoff bound teams. I wonder if getting tossed aside will wake up their HC or if he continues to struggle elsewhere after his early success.  It would be funny if we weren't doing a weaker and dumber version of their build. 
    • It was even worse than that. The following game we were also shutout. Pretty sure.  That Green Bay game, then two goose eggs to end the year.  Followed by the wonderful first two games of 2024. So 4 straight stinkers.    I looked at the box of that GB game a few weeks ago. It was 10 points and around 100-110 yards passing in the first half.  He had two TDS the 4th quarter. Around or close to 200 yards passing in the second half. It was mostly a great 2nd half.    This year’s Dallas game, he played well or turnover free for 4 quarters, had no numbers really but I thought it was his best game. Along with the Atlanta game at the end of 2024. I think the agreement Bay game was at home too, it won’t be this time.  I have to root for him to show something more in these last games  because I think they are going to keep him - so he really needs to be better.
