Run Ricky Run

Did anybody else see ESPN's 30 for 30 movie on Rickey Williams? I found it very interesting and my perceptionon Ricky completely changed for the better. I am really pulling for him this year and am glad to see him back on his feet.

When I lived in Dallas I went and saw him play in college and he was absolutely amazing. So fun to watch, much like DeAngelo actually. I miss his games and it is too bad he had this break in his career but I am sure it made him a better person.

[TylerDurden]

I was always a fan, even when he had his leave of absence. The documentary is absolutely amazing.

loved the film, really puts reality into perspective about ricky and all the struggles he was goin through as an nfl player

I didn't really care about him alot until the thursday night game last year. Deangelo was miced for the game and went up to ricky afterward and said something to the extent of.."great game rick, you were my fav player growing up and the reason i wear No. 34, good luck." I have a lot more respect for him after the ESPN film..not to mention deangelo's feelings, i thought that was pretty cool.

It still amazes me how much Mike Ditka screwed over the Saints by giving away basically two drafts from this one guy

I remember getting a Ricky Williams and Jimmy Rollins Baseball card as a kid at the ballpark.

Yeah Ricky's a super guy. I was pissed when Timmons stomped on him and tore his pec muscle. He's a very humble guy; he thought the Tuna was gonna cut him when he came in.

Williams also said he was surprised that Dolphins czar Bill Parcells didn't cut him when he took over the team last December.

"(Parcells) was describing the kind of player he wanted," Williams said. "Honestly, I had doubts if I was going to be that type of player."

Williams said that Parcells called him into his office after the team meeting and told him he was keeping him on the team to share rushing duties with Ronnie Brown.

"I was expecting him not to talk to me at all," Williams said. "I was expecting to get a letter in the mail saying I was going to be a free agent.

"I like (Parcells) more than I thought I would," added Williams, who had lunch with Parcells last week. "He's really different than I expected. It seems to me his greatest joy is developing true friendships with his players, being a mentor and trying to help people, not just in football but in life."
