GOOD GUYS'
Defensive lineman Vonnie Holliday and running back Ricky Williams were honored as co-winners of the team's annual ''Good Guy Award'' from the South Florida chapter of the Professional Football Writers of America.
The award goes to the player who shows the greatest level of professional conduct in his interaction with the media. It marked the first time the award has been shared.
Previous winners of the Dolphins award were David Bowens (2004), Larry Chester (2003), Mark Dixon (2002) and Zach Thomas (2001).


They actually give an award to a guy for being good to the media? Hey, when your high on life (or other substances) I guess everyone's happy. So no matter what a guy does as long as he's good to the media he can get this award? Maybe TO will win the Philly version, he had the media over to his house to share his workouts didn't he?

Nick Saban is no fool. He is trying to increase Ricky's value for the upcoming draft.

the award was shortened for media purposes from its full "good guy to know in case you want some herb" award

the prize? a baggie full of weed and some papers

i gotta keep saying this:
ricky williams is a very nice young man.
even when he's on another planet or in another dimension he's still a good guy.
but the media have gotten beyond themselves. i really hope this doesn't catch on in other markets. maybe they could make it a secret award or something.

That's what the description says, don't it? It's not like a lifetime achievement award or anything like that. What's the problem?
