Cedric: "I'm not Ricky"--but I party like him.

Cedric Benson tried to distance himself from Ricky Williams before the 2005 draft.

However, that hasn't stopped him from wanting to party with Ricky. Ricky Williams told reporters today that Benson called him to ask him to come party on his boat in Lake Travis. Ricky turned him down.

"Instead of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, Williams turned down an invitation to spend the day on the lake a couple of weekends ago with Bears running back Cedric Benson."

The moral of the story is that our own Cedric Benson has worse judgement than Ricky Williams. That's like saying you have less will-power than oprah in a doughnut shop. Or worse public speaking skills than President Bush. Or something.

Eh that seems a bit harsh.

Not sure Benson has hung his teammates out to dry in the sense that he abandoned them before the start of the season to get stoned for a year. The man’s never failed a drug test in his time here and he went out once and got caught doing something stupid that may or may not be as bad as it seems. He doesn’t party like him at all, he wasn’t hitting a bong or tokenin’ a joint. He was enjoying some Sun Chips and maybe a couple beers, who wouldn’t?
