MAKE IT RAIN, MAKE IT RAIN [/ QUOTE ] LOL!. I can't wait for PTI for the "Make It Rain" jokes from Wilbon. I hope they do the role play thing and Wilbon wears the cardboard head of the NFL commishioner(sp?). |
Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Sad. PacMan is a top 10 defensive player.
|
Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Odds he stays out of trouble and comes back next year? I'm going with 0%.
|
Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
He should be in jail.

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Chris Henry got 8 games.
Wow. My first reaction was "well Jags won't have to face him twice next year." I am all for this year suspension but I can't believe it actually happened. |
Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Did the commish already get buy-in from the players union? appeal? Not saying that it would be succesful, just curious.

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Cant believe this actually came to pass.

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
I can't imagine the players association is going to be happy about this.

[/ QUOTE ] i also can't imagine they're going to look good defending this guy in an appeal, so i don't think they'll get too involved here... EDIT: come on, they're going to look stupid arguing excessive punishment when a guy is paralyzed and lives were at stake... |

Tough break for him. He's should definitely call up his crew and head to the club this weekend to blow off some steam. Poor guy.

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Jones' suspension carries the following conditions:
• He must have no more run-ins with law enforcement. GG Pacman. They might as well just suspend him for life. |

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
true... its also sad that it took the NFL this long to grow a pair when it comes to suspending players. Ray Lewis, Jamal Lewis, their suspensions were a joke compaired to these recent ones.

But it is the union's job to defend their players. If your a great lawyer on retainer for a company who looks bad, you still defend them. |

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
Guy is a bum. Should be kicked out of the NFL and sent to the AFL for the rest of his life.

Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season

If its fanbase doiesn't like what goes on off the field, it will impact business. This really isn't that tough to figure out. |
Re: Pacman Suspended for the Entire 2007 Season
i'm not sure how i feel about this, wrt outside life impacting his work life. in any case, as far as the answer to this question
[ QUOTE ] Odds he stays out of trouble and comes back next year? I'm going with 0%. [/ QUOTE ] 95%+ this guy may be ignorant but he is not stupid. |
