Ricky Williams Still Tempted by the Lure of the Sweet Leaf
I give credit to Miami Herald reporter Armando Salgeuro for asking running back Ricky Williams prior to the Dolphins' bye week if he had the urge to smoke marijuana, but it's equally baffling that Williams, already a multiple drug offender in the league, would actually say "Yes" to the question. May...

Matt Bryant Kicks Through The Pain
One of the most heartwarming and heartbreaking stories from yesterday's NFL news was that of Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Matt Bryant, who just a day after burying his 3-month-old son, Tryson, somehow summoned the strength to kick a ball through the uprights for his team.
