Yeah but he only failed a few tests for weed, it is not like he was caught with kilos of crack or something. He smoked a few blunts and got caught. Big deal.
I also think the signing of Williams would boost the interest in the CFL, atleast from Americans for the year that he plays there. So while the image of the CFL could possibly take a hit (I disagree) fan interest would increase. Even as simple as some curious fans checking out a CFL website would be worth it, since the CFL does not have much to risk (How would the CFL be seen any different than the NFL since the NFL is going to take back Ricky Williams for the '07 season + they already took him back for the '05 season)
