Adam "Not Pacman" Jones

When football player Adam Jones was reinstated to the NFL before this season everyone figured he had turned over a new leaf, apparently not. It is reported that he got into a fight with his own bodyguard. Before last season he was suspended for the whole season for violating the league's personal conduct policy. Since being drafted three years ago Jones has been entangled with law enforcement 10 times. I don't think he understands how lucky he is to be making that much money by playing football. He is living the life that kids all over the country can only dream about. He has been arrested for numerous fights usually in or around a nightclub. Last season, while in New York to appeal his season suspension by meeting with league commissioner Roger Goodell, he went to a he violated his suspension criteria by going to a nightclub. It just shows what a joke he thinks this whole thing is. Before being reinstated this season he was traded from the Tennessee Titans to the Dallas Cowboys. He then held a press conference to tell the media that from now on he would like to be called Adam or Mr. Jones instead of his nickname “Pacman.” He said that when people called him “Pacman” he felt disrespected which is to be expected because of all the boneheaded mistakes he has made and this latest fight is just another example. I think he should be kicked out of the league for good.
