Man, that game is the only one that really scares me. Sooooo glad it's at home, we're looking forward to creating another beast quake!See you then.
HEARING the interview is so much better! Right after he says "it's more like spinach for Popeye" they go into the most hilarious music. I can't even describe it. It was like kill shot/funky. Totally hilarious. Just recently watched the Ricky 30/30 espn film a few weeks ago, crazy story in retrospect.Ricky Williams Compares Weed to “Spinach for Popeye”
Contrary to most critics who might say that marijuana use derailed Ricky Williams from reaching his full potential, the former NFL star believes quite the opposite.In a recent interview with Campus Insiders, Williams spoke about his new role as a running backs coach at the University of the Incarnate Word, and was asked what he tells his students about his infamous marijuana use, which the interviewer insinuated as an “Achilles heel” to Williams’ career.
“I don’t agree that it was an Achilles heel. I kind of think it was more like spinach for Popeye,” Williams said.
Last month, former teammate Channing Crowder commented on the positive aspects of Williams’ marijuana use.
“Remember that Buffalo game, the 200-yard game?” Crowder asked in an interview with WQAMradio in Miami. “Smoked the night before. Talk to Ricky. He was doing it, that’s what he did. Ricky has social anxiety and he smoked weed. Ricky’s marijuana didn’t affect the team until he got caught smoking. … Him smoking weed, sitting at his house smoking weed, didn’t affect anybody but Ricky. He got high and then he sobered up and then he went to practice the next day.”
Sounds like it may have been harsh marijuana punishments—not marijuana itself—that kept Williams from reaching his true potential. The NFL suspended and fined Williams for testing positive for pot several times throughout his career, including a suspension for the entire 2006 season.
I completely agree. Even more, I hate the term "pot" and "weed".I wish people would start calling it cannabis, marijuana was bs from the get go.
Also, Im sick of the toker stereotypes "lazy watching tv and eating junk food" simply not true for allot of us.
I don't really see a downside. Other than in the Ricky Wiliiams case, it's not typically considered a performance enhancing drug.Too bad the nfl doesn't agree, "protecting" players with no safe alternative for medication... Not to mention it can help you get strong like Popeye! All around better for the game me thinks!
That sounds like a lot of fun! Damn I hadnt really considered a flag league, I should look into that locally.I'll say you dont want your players stoned on the field, for sure, but I can get in the zone when Im high If I didnt live out in the middle of nowhere Id join a flag league, I love playing just love it, cant afford to get hurt though. Some fond memories of schooling peeps out at the river.
Last game (last spring) I broke my hand second half, already caught three tds and got a pick, couldnt catch anymore so I threw for three second half tds with my good hand lol I never play quarterback these hands are made for catching,,,, and growing
I wouldnt mind playing with other older busted bodies, would still be fun.
True enough, but make it "The Rockford Files" and we got a deal!I wish people would start calling it cannabis, marijuana was bs from the get go.
