Thu, 5 Aug 2004 09:20:18 -0700

Armando Salguero, of the Miami Herald, reports retired RB Ricky Williams has told Sports Illustrated that he would "love it" if he returned to football and play for the Oakland Raiders as early as next year. Williams added that California would be the only place fans would accept him because there are "crazy fans who would expect a weirdo." Williams told the Herald that he heard rumors of Oakland offering the Dolphins a first-round pick to get his rights and called the idea of playing for the Raiders "interesting." If Williams returns, he will face a league fine and penalty for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. While the Raiders would have to trade for Williams since the Miami Dolphins still owns his rights, Dolphins general manager Rick Spielman has said "no one" called the Dolphins for interest in acquiring Williams.

Can you believe this?
