Once again, Adam don’t call me “Pac-man” Jones has made the headlines. And when Mr. Jones makes the headlines, it usually isn’t good news! Early Wednesday morning, Pac-man allegedly got into a “scuffle” with one of his security guards at a hotel in Dallas (read more here). The police were called, but no charges were filed. Is this much ado about nothing…or is Adam facing a possible suspension!
Sheriff Goddell was scheduled for a visit to see Mr. Jones on Wednesday prior to this report…we will have to wait and see if this results in any disciplinary action by the NFL. The shame of it all is that Jones has been playing fairly well for the Cowboys thus far. He got off to a slow start, which was expected since his 1-year suspension of a year ago, but he was coming on strong as of late.
Pac-man has been replacing Terrence Newman in the starting line-up because of Newman’s groin/abdomen injury. Newman may require surgery and miss up to six weeks. This situation was a good opportunity for Pac-man to show off his talents as a starter and prove he had changed his ways. Prior to this alleged incident, Jones has been a model teammate and has been under the tutelage of Deion Sanders.
Unfortunately, this alleged “scuffle” could be his undoing altogether. Goddell had told Mr. Jones previously, that he had a zero tolerance policy…we shall see what happens. I just hope Mr. Goddell researches all the facts before making his decision. After all, Adam Jones’ career is in jeopardy. Sheriff…we don’t need a rush to judgment!

It seems to me like the media is scraping the bottom of the barrel to find articles - for athletes and Hollywood stars. This Pac-Man incident sounds like a non-issue to me. People get in to arguements all the time - get over it! Let's not turn something into a headline, that's not news! I mean really - things are slow in Hollywood so now that are writing articles speculating that Angelina had the old nip-tuck after her latest delivery. Good for her - people do it all the time, but it doesn't make the headlines. Come on media men (and women) - stick to reporting on real news!
I agree media might have blown this up some. Come on thought. Adam Jones knows the rules. He broke enought of them. I mean to fight his body guard. Sounds like a misunderstanding for sure. Rember Dan you said it about the pats couach, If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck.....Well must mean Adam never really lost the Pac-man personality.
Since it was a small situation, even thought cops had to be called. I hope sheriff dose do the research before jumpping the gun. He did show Brandon Marshall some tolerence and looks like Matt cocaine Jones got a break. So maybe a year is a little to harsh. Only time and NFL Commsih will tell.
