I had planned on starting my hype-machine for Steve Slaton for the Heisman tonight. But instead, here we are, 3 min. into the 3rd quarter, and he has put the ball on the ground not once, but twice. And the second resulted in a TD for Louisville. Who the heck is slathering the ball with Vaseline tonight. There have been 3 TO’s in the 3rd quarter alone (and remember, we’re only 3 min. in). In addition, the first half wasn’t much better. It seemed like every kick had a mishandle on the receiving end. Slickery, Slickery…..

btw…..I had WVU and the over 56 tonight. There, that ought to assure that it’s a loser now! ha!

The latest mishap in the life of Ricky Williams happened this weekend when he broke his arm in a game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Ricky better lay off the cannabis sativa over the next four to six weeks while he recovers or he could be way out of shape for a possible Grey Cup run with the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL.

So Ricky Williams wants to play for the Toronto Argonauts. We’ve talked about that already. But if Ricky ever wants to get back in the NFL, he is going to have to participate in the league’s substance abuse program, meaning he could be tested up to 10 times a month. Great. However, Ricky wasn’t planning on having to take drug tests for the CFL too. That is apparently being considered if the Miami Dolphins agree to letting Williams play in the CFL this season. You know what, no matter how many times you test him, the results will always be the same. Ricky will always be a wasted talent, who can’t control himself, and will ultimately, sadly, self-destruct.

I am going to start a rant here that I’m sure will piss some people off (specifically Canadiens) yet others will be in full agreement. I know there has been a FEW good players come out of the CFL, but it is really limited. Excuse the players I forget in the list of stars because the only ones I can remember are Warren Moon, Raghib “Rocket” Ismail and Doug Flutie. Is their lack of talent the sole reason they are willing to allow any and every thug suspended from the NFL? The two most recent ones are Ricky “Hot Yoga” Williams and Onterrio “Whizzenator” Smith. The Toronto Argonauts want Ricky a huge waste of talent and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers want Onterrio who has failed drug tests FOUR TIMES. This is the same league who has allowed other classic bums like R. Jay Soward and Bernard Williams because it’s the only way big names will play in Canada. Good luck Ricky and Onterrio…you will need it once the exchange rate drops your salary to something similar to mine.
