"I don't care if they would have [taken] my pay for the rest of the year, I was going home," Williamson told the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "It wouldn't have mattered to me."

At least Troy Williamson has his priorities in order. I've never been a fan of the guy, and obviously he has been a huge disappointment, but you've got to be there for your family. If the Vikings feel like they have to recover $25,000 and that will really help their team then more power to them. Newsflash, football isn't life and death, if you have to help plan a funeral, support your family, arrange travel for siblings, and grieve then maybe you can miss a game. I hope they get taken to task by every media outlet...can someone nominate them for Keith Olberman's "Worst Person in the NFL"?
