Ricky suspended for one year

Ricky Williams lost his appeal and will be suspended for the 2006 season. He also will not be allowed to train at the Dolphins' facility during the year.

This may mark the end of Ricky's checkered career. I can't remember so many what-ifs surrounding a player in recent years. He could have been one of the all-time great running backs, but....

The suspension also means the Dolphins are likely to draft a RB this weekend. I doubt they'll take one in the first round, but that's OK because good RBs can historically be found late in the draft.
