Because the legalization of marijuana remains a hot topic in NFL circles and there are few more prominent advocates for the usage of of it -- particularly for football players -- than former NFL running back Ricky Williams.

Williams revealed recently he was drug tested more than 500 times in his NFL career (he doesn't even have 500 career receptions). He continued opening up about the topic of marijuana with Bill Simmons on HBO's Any Given Wednesday, appearing in a pair of segments, including one not related to football called the "Weed Round" with actor Seth Rogan.
