If one of the best running backs in the NFL is satisfied with playing in a league that pays him less, I wonder why more players aren&#8217;t making this type of transition over.  This season Williams hasn&#8217;t really been an allstar in the league like everyone thought but that hasn&#8217;t changed the way he played the game.  By putting in an effort game after game, Ricky is showing that he does in fact care more about playing football and not the money.  The CFL is a great league and shouldn&#8217;t be looked at like its the minor leagues for the NFL.  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sun-sentinel.com\/sports\/football\/pro\/dolphins\/sfl-spdolnotes07nov07,0,4062570.story?coll=sfla-dolphins-front\">read more<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/digg.com\/football\/Ricky_Williams_to_stay_in_Canada\">digg story<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;They must have some good weed in Canada for Ricky to be considering staying up there!
