Ricky Williams and Benson

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.

 

Williams told the American-Statesman that things would have played out differently if he had been on Benson's boat.

 

"I think if I had come down, things might have worked out a little bit differently," Williams, who is entering the final year of his contract with the Dolphins, told the newspaper. "I find I have a calming influence on people I'm around.

 

"As a high-level athlete, it's just something that's ingrained in me. I always think that if I'm there, things would be different. I can't say how."

 

Probably cause everyone would have been so stoned on the Ganja, they couldn't move!!!

That's priceless.

 

Also, FYI, I'm from hereforth referring to marijuana as "calming influence".
