OK, who had Week 6 in the Pacman Jones blowup office pool? How big of an idiot are you when you're down to your last chance to play football and you get into a fight with one of the guys the team pays to make sure you don't get into fights? This is beyond stupid. This is Gus Frerotte jamming his head into a wall stupid. This is Ricky Williams last 2-3 years of behavior stupid. But more than anything, it's Pacman Jones stupid.
This scenario is so ridiculous if it were written for classic HBO sports-com 1st and 10 you wouldn't believe it. The only thing less shocking than Pacman getting into trouble again is that the Dallas Cowboys' "internal investigation" determined Pacman won't be disciplined by the team. In related news, an internal investigation by AIG said none of their executives will be disciplined by the team either.
Did anybody think Jerry Jones would really punish Pacman for acting like an idiot? He didn't punish Michael Irvin for bleeding Everett McIver with a pair of scissors, or any of his other numerous transgressions. Jones is the biggest enabler in a league chock full of them. If you can carry a football, or hit the person carrying it hard enough to make them drop it, this league will find a place for you. Lawrence Phillips, anyone? Hell, I'll go one much better. Leonard Little. Killed a woman in a car accident, didn't miss a game. By comparison, Pacman is a model citizen.
Hopefully Commissioner Roger Goodell will step in here and help Pacman transition to his next career, which I'll suspect will be - felon. Pac's already shown he doesn't care enough about pro football to keep his nose clean. Perhaps someday someone will start a "Rollin' With Your Posse and Makin' It Rain in Strip Clubs" League. He's a legit first pick for that league.
