Afternoons on the score. Dave Wansett is here. Kyle Menunga. This is not run to the sideline play. This is down and dirty. Let me tell you about this play. I'm at Miami. We're playing Buffalo. It's a Sunday night ESPN game. I'm coaching the Dolphins. Mike Patrick is doing play-by-play. There we go. Good evening, everybody. I'm Mike Patrick. It's great to have you with us. We had like a four-point lead. Four minutes left to goal. 10-7 Miami. And our quarterback, God bless him, Jay Feeder, throws the ball. It kind of goes off a DB's hand, so I do my typical deal. I've seen enough. No one gets a ball except brick. Bill's defense has been on the field all night long, and they can expect a big dose of Ricky Williams right here. We start pumping the ball to Ricky Williams. Right back to the bread and butter, lowers his head, and pile drives his way down to the 37. I think he had 8, 10, 12 carry. It was a 13-played drive, I think. Williams off the left side behind. Conrad and Ricky Williams first down at the 29. Inside the 2. 41 carries. That is an all-time Miami Dolphin Rek. I call it time-off. Third and goal. Will it be number 42 for Ricky Williams? And we could kick the field goal and pretty much feel good about it.

1:12.1

You know, they weren't going to score at that point on our defense. Ricky comes over, and I could barely look at him. He had no skin on either arm. It was just completely torn off from the baseball. I swear not, from the baseball. Ricky Williams, I'm not going to clean that uniform. They're going to burn it. And I looked at him, I said, Rick, and he says, we're going for it.

1:28.9

That's what he said.

1:29.5

And I says, you want to go for it?

1:31.1

And he said, Rick, and he says, we're going for it. That's what he said. And I says, you want to go for it? And he says, I'll go for it, coach. And I says, you know what, Rick, you call the play. And we call this play scissors. If he gets in the end zone, you're going to hear a war out of this place like you've never heard in pro player stadium. where he was going one way and he was coming back. And he says, run 35 scissors, coach. And I said, Rick, let me tell you something. We are on the four-yard line and they have an all-pro safety over there. Malloy. Malloy, he's done. He's not going to go for the fake on the four-yard line. So when you wind this thing back, we're not blocking him. He's going to be standing at the line of scrimmage waiting on you. And he says, coach, run 35 scissors. You think Dave wants that son into this game? Holy Macle. Oh, Ricky Gold. Will it be number 42 for Ricky Williams? And we run it, and he brings it back.

2:18.3

Oh, God, it was poetry.

2:20.3

It will.

2:21.1

Malloy's standing on the goal line.

2:23.5

Everybody else is blocked.

2:25.0

And Ricky's coming back, and Malloy's standing there.

2:27.7

And obviously, you know, Ricky puts it down and goes.

2:30.9

Into the end goes, touchdown.

2:32.4

Touchdown!

2:33.3

42 carries 153 yards for Ricky Williams.

2:38.2

It was beautiful.

2:39.1

It was beautiful.

2:39.9

I love telling those stories because it was downhill.

2:42.2

There was nothing fancy about this play.

2:44.7

Take two steps to the right and you're coming back to the left and there's a guy that's

an all-pro player waiting on you.
