Pacman Making His Case For Reinstatement

Pacman Jones is making a strong case for him to be reinstated into the NFL by Roger Goodell. Keeping his nose clean would be the best thing for him to make a case to get back into the NFL, but he chooses to take a different route.

Jones decided to punch a woman in a club, allegedly.

A woman is seeking an arrest warrant against suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, claiming he punched her at an Atlanta strip club.

Fulton County Magistrate Court officials told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Wanda S. Jackson asked for the warrant after a Jan. 3 altercation at the Body Tap Strip Club.

"Mr. Jones, according to Ms. Jackson, was at the Body Tap Club and she and Mr. Jones got into an argument at the club and Mr. Jones struck Ms. Jackson in the left eye, causing a bruise around her left eye," according to the police report.

He has been arrested six times since being drafted in the 2005 draft.

Jones had told Goodell that he planned on avoiding clubs to stay away from situations like the one that happened this month, allegedly.

I do not get how a Pro Bowl-caliber player throws away a career by seeking out trouble. And I do not want to hear the "trouble is after him" argument because that is hogwash.

If an alcoholic wants to stop drinking he stays away from his drinking buddies and bars. If a stoner wants to stay away for the hippie lettuce he stops stays away from his dealers and pothead friends.

Jones could avoid all this. He has money. Make your own damn club in your house! I know you have a stripper pole in your house, Jones. A dude like you who frequents strip clubs like you without a doubt has one in his crib. Shoot, you are considered a sports celebrity, you could hook up a party at your place with Elizabeth Hurley being the celebrity stripper.

Lock yourself in your room and get back on the football field. Or not, you always have a jail mate in #7.

*UPDATE* The broad already dropped the charges.

Where Did They Go?

In this edition I bring you ex-NBA player Keon Clark. He last played in the 2003-2004 season with the Utah Jazz before he was traded to the Phoenix Suns who ultimately cut him thus ending his career.

I always liked the dude, partly because I thought he would have played well with the Shaq-Kobe Lakers teams who were always in search of a serviceable power forward/center.

And partly because he always had some great highlight dunks:


Well it looks as though Clark will now reside behind bars for a couple years after being arrested on a search warrant.

Clark, 32, of Danville, was scheduled for a hearing Monday in Vermilion County Circuit Court to decide whether he will serve his Vermilion County and Champaign County prison sentences at the same time or consecutively. That means Clark could serve either two-and-a-half years or five years in the Department of Corrections.

Clark was sentenced in absentia to two-and-a-half years in prison in both cases. The Champaign case was for driving under the influence, and the Vermilion case was for driving under the influence, possession of a controlled substance and not having a valid firearm owner's identification card.

It sucks that his off-court (rather in-court) issues led to his NBA demise. Clark is only 32 and I could point out several NBA teams that could use a big man on toothpick legs to dunk on people.

I will always remember your dunk on Bradley where you did not even touch the rim with your hand.

Holler Clark, get it together and come back to the league when you get out of the big house.
