You guessed it, [Pacman Jones](http://sports.iwon.com/news/01152008/v6051.html)! Is this guy the biggest idiot in the world, or what- literally? You can afford to have women come strip for you at your house for petes sake! No real venom here, just bewilderment. The commish seems to be a hardass, I don’t think he’ll like it that you promised him you’d be on your best behavior, and now this. And my guess is the money from contract 1 is drying up from the legal fees and table dances, and there wont be a contract 2. I’m betting after this he may get a lifetime ban, seriously. ---

She was a lawyer to boot. Not sure why that matters but it seems worth mentioning. ---

I just can’t understand the mentality- pretty much in a few months he would have been reinstated and gotten millions from the Titans or elsewhere. Someone tells you all you have to do is refrain from getting into a fight at a strip club- not not go to a strip club, just no get into trouble there- and in a few months someone will give you millions of dollars, and you can’t even do that. A guy who could afford to have hot chicks perform private shows of any type at his house. Too funny. ---

Strip clubs are kind of addictive. ---

[QUOTE=Omegaman] She was a lawyer to boot. Not sure why that matters but it seems worth mentioning. [/QUOTE] Even funnier is that she was HIS lawyer, apparently. She’s representing Pacman in a divorce matter involving him, according to Jim Rome this afternoon. This cat is a genuine menace to society. If anybody cares about him anymore, or if anybody ever did, they need to put him in manacles and chain him to his own property for the foreseeable future. ---

The guy’s obviously haunted by some ghosts. It’s like that with celebrities: it’s like being trapped in a maze, where no matter where you turn something’s trying to get you. They follow you everywhere you go. Sometimes it’s hard to even tell them apart. And sometimes you feel so powerful, but it doesn’t last. It’s frustrating, like there’s a gold key in front of you that disappears right as you try to grab it. I just hope he can find some way through to the other side, or he’s just going to dwindle down to nothing and disappear. Game over. ---

The story is a bit fuzzy on why he would knowingly punch someone who had nothing to do with the incident, unless he is just a psycho. Anyhoo, here’s his list of priors- he almost made it a year without incident: July 13, 2005- Arrested and charged with assault and felony vandalism after a nightclub altercation. This began Pacman Jones NFL rap sheet. He already had a lengthy one from high school and college. September 5, 2005- Adam was invited to attend the Nashville Sports Council Kickoff Luncheon. Jones went off on a verbal tirade while being told to wait for his car after the event. He then refused to tip the valet service. October 2005- State of West Virginia filed a petition stating that Jones had not been contacting his probation officer and that he had not reported his July 2005 arrest. The judge extended the probation for just 90 days. March 23, 2006- Charged with marijuana possession in Fayetteville, Georgia. He went on to claim that he knew how to beat the NFL’s drug test. August 25, 2006- Arrested for disorderly conduct and public intoxication after being ordered by the cops to leave a Murfreesboro night club several times. Jones claimed a woman stole his wallet. The woman claimed that Jones spat on her. The judge in the case gave Pacman six months probation and told him to stay away from the club. October 26, 2006- Jones was issued a citation for misdemeanor assault after a female student from Tennessee State University claimed that Jones spit in her face at a Nashville night club. Feburary 19, 2007- The facts are disputed and no charges have been made yet, but Jones was in the middle of a fight and shooting at a strip club in Las Vegas that left one man paralyzed and two more wounded. The fight broke out after Jones showered strippers on stage with $81,000 dollars. The club owner claims Jones was beating a strippers head against the bar while claiming to kill one of the club’s employees. January 3, 2008- Pacman is accused of punching Wanda S. Jackson in the face at an Atlanta strip club called the Body Tap Strip Club. Jackson says Jones reached over the counter and sucker punched her in her left eye. The above time line doesn’t include his sentence of one year in prison for a bar fight in Morgantown, West Virginia while in college. The sentence was later suspended in exchange for two years of probation. ---

Ohhhh…I get it. Heh\*. I don’t know. I…I just don’t know. It’s dumb. It’s nonsensical. This guy apparently has no wisdom whatsoever, he simply cannot learn or judge _at all_. And with Mike Tyson, Ryan Leaf, Ricky Williams, et al, it’s not even _original_ anymore. I’d push for a lifetime ban, but I’m afraid it may be redundant at this point. Who’d hire someone who could, among other things, punch a teammate or coach completely on a whim? \*Seriously, it’s 2008, and I guarantee you that a lot of kids are going to read that and wonder what the heck the an insanely fast Corolla has to do with mazes or disappearing keys. The little yellow dude’s been around, yo. ---
