Merged: Ricky Full Interview/ Was invited on Benson's boat

Sounds good, Hopefully he stays focused on football this year and can stay in the league a little while. I think we'll need his help early on if Ronnie isnt 100% yet.

He's probably my favorite player (when he actually played). Just a different cat altogether. I find him fascinating as a person.

How great would it be if Ricky could be named the 2008 comeback player of the year?

This is one interesting young man, a myriad of personal growth dilemma's all wrapped up into one man. If he can sort out who he is, realize he has an incredible God-given talent, and decide to use that talent to the best of his ability, we could be in for a fun year of watching Ricky run. Lets hope that happens.

Report: Williams declined invite to be on Benson's boat on day of incident

Would things have played out differently if Ricky Williams had been on Cedric Benson's boat earlier this month? The Dolphins running back thinks so, and according to Williams, he was invited to go on board.

Williams told the Austin American-Statesman for Thursday's editions that he declined an invitation from Benson to spend a Saturday on Benson's boat in Lake Travis, Texas.

On May 3, Benson was charged with boating while intoxicated after failing a sobriety test and resisting arrest in an alleged struggle that required officers to use pepper spray before dragging him ashore.
