Ricky Williams breaks arm in Argonauts' win
REGINA, Saskatchewan (AP) - Running back Ricky Williams broke his left arm in the second quarter of the Toronto Argonauts' 26-23 victory over the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday night and is out indefinitely.
Williams finished with 17 yards on four carries. He entered Saturday's game with 214 yards on 53 carries with one touchdown in four games.
Williams is playing in the CFL after he was suspended by the NFL for one year after a fourth positive drug test. He is still under contract with the NFL's Miami Dolphins.
The Argonauts said the former NFL rushing champion will undergo more tests when the team returns to Toronto.

It won't effect our season. He has plenty of time to recoup.

The season ban kinda took care of that.

Well if one was to rationialize the situation, if he was going to have an injury, I guess it's ok that it was an arm break as opposed to legs/neck/back. Here's a good tidbit from the Argonauts coach, I got this from the Foxsports article:

"You're talking about some fortitude. It's a clean break. He just came off quiet, didn't say a thing. Like, I'd have been screaming."

I guess being a weirdo zen master helps your pain fortitude!

He won't need any extra pain medicine, he has that all covered.

That coach must be a "wuss" :D ... I didn't scream/cry when I busted up my arm or my ankle (and the ankle required surgery - and yes I walked around on it for several months before the surgery).
