Ricky Williams ripped Tony Sparano and team-mates.

Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams lit a match to any and all bridges connecting him to the team during his weekly radio show on Monday.

In the process, Williams revealed to anyone paying attention just how much of a hypocrite and a fraud he really is, while at the same time inflicting some damage to Dolphins coach Tony Sparano's chances of remaining in his current position. Williams' one-hour rant with co-host Sid Rosenberg on 560-WQAM in Miami was longer than the combined amount of time he has spent answering questions from the rest of the South Florida media over the last three seasons, save for one or two writers.

Rest of story here

Ricky Williams Rips Tony Sparano, Dolphins Teammates on Way Out Door -- NFL FanHouse

I think he knows he won't be back with the Dolphins and simply let it rip.

He now even screwed up his chances to play in the CFL again.

The NFL might be tuff on the players but the CFL is tuffer.

It is nice when an athlete speaks their mind & doesn't give us the typical BS. I am sure what he is saying is true based on their effort last game.

I am just curious where he will wind up next year, and no I don't think it will be in the CFL lol.

Huhhhh??? lmao.

The CFL is the easiest on players of any league in the world. They take on all the US players with drug suspensions/convictions, and records without a care. Attitude problems? No problem. The CFL also has no substance abuse policy, essentially letting players do what they want.

Seriously Luke, I think you just say things sometimes without thinking. lol.

Anyway, Ricky sure likes to burn bridges... thats for sure.

Well Johnny, I know you like to correct me and that's fine. Being politically correct for me is impossible because English is not my first language. As a matter of fact I still think in French before I write in English--the two language structures are inverted from one-another. And I'm not good to put one paragraph in a few words...cuz my posts would take a whole page trying to explain my reasoning.

No problem on attitude problems? Just last Summer or the year before the CFL and the Winninpeg Bombers openly said that (I think it was Pacman Jones?) why they didn't sign him--"PROBLEMO" It was all over TSN news. Also there was a discussion of it in the Proline Forum...so that means it was in 2009.

There are other cases too. That's besides the ones that are not made public cuz I'm sure there's a Confidentiality Agreement that was signed on all levels between the Leagues, and Gov.

If Ricky plays in the CFL again remind me that I will give you 100 pts no questions asked. You don't lay anything.

If he's still viable to Play in the NFL he will not come up North. Even if he gets suspended like the last episode I doubt he will play here cuz age is creeping up and will probably retire instead.

Even the fact that CFL teams were looking at a douche like Pacman tells you something. And Winnipeg DID sign him, until the backlash from fans and the media got to heavy. But come on, there are hundreds of other cases of CFL teams picking up felons and bad characters from the US after they were banned from playing down there. More like thousands.

CFL is known for being easy on the players... thats all I was saying man. It is what they are known for. Players can do steriods, smoke pot all day, and have records all they want with not a peep from the league. The NFL fines you for having a crazy night at the bar. To say the CFL is tougher than the NFL just made me laugh, cause it is probably the most untrue thing I have ever read. I never said Ricky would play in the CFL againin my post. Not even sure what that bet is about.

Anyway, wasn't trying to be a dick... cheers.
