This is, Pacman

Ah, there's not much better than heading to your local strip club, 'raining' down cash on a big breasted stripper and then smacking her while she tries to grab the money. Yea, there's not much better than that... umm well....

Ok ok, so the smacking part isn't the greatest thing to do. Neither is being involved in shootings the same night at the same club, especially if you're an up and coming star in the NFL, right?

Adam "Pacman" Jones has gone through his bout of legal problems since being drafted in 2005, and after being suspended for the entire 2007 season due to the strip club incident, one can only hope he's matured a bit since all these ordeals.

He's 24 going on 25, and after being suspended, he attempted a brief stint in music and wrestling that both flopped. One of logic should assume that when being given so much, it's best to not take it for granted. Pretty sure Confucius said that. When you do, well, you see here what happens.

The reason I even give a damn about this at all, is because, as you've probably already surmised, Pacman Jones is interested in joining the ranks of The Dallas Cowboys.

Hmm, Pacman Jones rocking the Star on his head... The same Pacman Jones who just a year ago lit up the headlines, sparked controversary, embarrassed the NFL... but also tied the NFL lead 3 punt return Touchdowns and edged out Devin Hester for the lead in average return yards in 2006.

The Pacman Jones who had a game where he ran back an interception for a Touchdown, ran back 70 yards on a kick return and blocked the potential game winning pass. Yea, him.

Hmm... The good seems to outweigh the bad. Morales...Smorales... this is football damnit!

The Cowboys need his return skills and his added depth at cornerback. His suspension has put him lower on a lot of coaches 'want' list, which should help keep his salary reasonable.

I think we'd be a dumb organization if we didn't at least try to tempt him with some sort of meager offer. A year at most, minimum wage and a 'one and done' approach to his bad behavior off the field. I could easily live with that.

Will it happen is the question, and I'll certainly be eager to keep you updated when it is answered... Until then...
