Yeah he finally finalized the retirement papers, so he cannot come back to the NFL for a year without penalty. I haven't seen much of Travis Minor, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Fins end up giving the ball to him for the next season. That trade for Anthony Thomas looks pretty good, seeing as how the Dolphins have a great defence anyways.

I wonder if AJ Feely will start over Fiedler now that they have to rely more on passing (Feely has a stronger arm).

Nope. Heard on ESPN yesterday that Ricky said if he does decide to come back, the only team he would be willing to play for is Oakland because of Norv.

Wasn't Norv Turner the offensive coordinator in Miami these past few years while Ricky was there? That makes sense, no why anyone would want to play for the Raiders boggles my mind.

Yeah. Ricky Williams had his most success under Norv Turner's offense in Miami hence he wants to play for him in Oakland.

This keeps getting better.

Huizenga the Phins owner said he plans to sue rickey for 5mil in incentives paid over the last 2 seasons, a report got ahold of Rickey and asked him about it, his response was he'd file bankruptcy and Huizenga would look really stupid suing an bankrupt guy w/ 3 kids.

There's also been a few nfl leaks that if rickey comes back next seaosn, where he retired he wouldn't have to still serve his 4game suspension.

Very true, but if he's out of the country and has his cash invested in weed....

I didn't recall that miami gave him a new contract w/ a signing bonus, if so, then he will have to pay that back, just like Barry Sanders did... but I don't see how you can sue for incentives reached.

Interesting, if he came back this year, he'd be banned for a year, because retiring and coming back same season is treated like failing a drug test, which would be #4 for him.

I think he can for part of the signing bonus, Barry Sanders had to pay part of his back.

I don't think you can sue for incentives earned, if he got 1mil for rushing for 1,000yds and he did it, then I'm not sure what case could be made.

So, Williams lost in court. Even though the Phins didn't pay his signing bonus... and he had hit incentives... aperently the contract had a clause that if he didn't finish the contract he'd have to return incentives and signing bonus.

Whoever did the deal for the Saints was a genius!

I want to know will the Saints get the bonus money or the Phins?

Ricky said if he owed the 8mil he'd file bankruptcy.

He had also called the Phins and said he'd come back for a new deal.

There is talk he could file bankruptcy and would return to the NFL next season as a free agent.

I'm sure the Phins would argue they still have the rights (not sure how longs left on his contract).

Maybe they can give him an "all the weed you can smoke" clause.
