It seems like it was just last week that the Dallas Cowboys told Adam “Pacman” Jones to keep a low profile. Apparently Pacman doesn’t like being told what to do because he was involved in an altercation Tuesday night in a Dallas hotel.

Jones reportedly fought with the bodyguard he was given by the Cowboys in order to keep himself out of trouble. It was a good plan in theory, but this is Pacman we’re talking about.

From CBS 11:

The unidentified body guard told CBS 11 sources that Jones is prone to bad mood swings when he has been drinking. According to the body guard, he was using a urinal when Jones came inside and stuck him in an unprovoked attack. He also said he hit Jones back.

Police investigated, but did not arrest anyone. “To have an offense generated, you have to have a complainant,” said Dallas Police Lt. Anthony William. “In this particular case there wasn’t a complainant.”

Sources say Jones went outside and left the hotel without paying his tab. He was reportedly with a woman who drove the two away from the scene.

The original story also says that a mirror was broken in the bathroom, and hotel security had to break up the brawl.. But there was no offense generated? We’ll see what NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says about that.

Pro Football Talk has more details on the drama, including the reason Pacman punched the bodyguard.

The source says that the problem started because the babysitter popped off to Jones’ female companion. Jones, who had been drinking, then started up with the guy, and it culminated in a scuffle.

Pacman’s an idiot. Remember when he wanted people to stop calling him Pacman? Like that was gonna change anything. Any time he’s gone to court he’s been referred to as Adam Jones and that didn’t keep him from F’n up so why would a name change? I was all for Pacman Jones being reinstated in the NFL and getting a second chance, but you’re not gonna hear a word from me when Goodell suspends his dumb ass for two years.

Deion Sanders wants to help Adam Jones repair his image so somehow a commercial for Drivers Select is a logical choice. Primetime’s prior involvement with the company is the only way to explain Jones being in this ad. Deion probably had to pay Drivers Select for Adam Jones’ appearance because no company in their right mind would hire that dude to represent their product.. Unless somebody invents a “Make it Rain” machine or a Scrip Club.

MLB

Bud Selig wants Jason Giambi to talk to the MLB steroid busters “or else”. Or else what Bud? You’re gonna suspend Jason Giambi for talking about something that happened in the past, that he already kinda admitted to, for what? I’m not even sure where this steroid scandal investigation is going. If every player that ever used steroids came forward today and admitted it, then what? Nobody is gonna shutdown MLB.. And MLB officials might not have been doing the roids, but they were well aware of what was going on. The new rules are in place, so it’s time to focus on current steroid users, the dummies that slip up now. Threatening punishment for Giambi is lip service that really serves no purpose. Let’s look forward instead of living in the past.

NBA

Baseball is known as the ”numbers” sport but Jason over at Ball Hype has picked up where Bill Simmons and John Hollinger left off for basketball statistical analysis. Breaking down who was the best player for every ten year period of the league from ’51-’61 to ’97-’07 was a great idea and produced some interesting results. The rankings are based on Hollinger’s PER formula and most of the names you would expect to see there are there. If you take a look at the total number of ten year spans dominated by MJ, only centers Chamberlain, Jabbar, and O’neal are in his class. Guys like Olajuwon, Malone, and Garnett have the misfortune of playing in eras dominated by bigger stars.

NFL

Pacman Jones’ ill-fated trip and “rain making” at a strip club during the NBA All-Star weekend was one of the reasons he ended up being suspended for the season by new NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Yesterday the news broke that Jones’ DNA tested negative, twice, when compared to DNA obtained from a stripper that was bitten during the February fracas. So the DNA doesn’t match and you have Lt. George Castro saying that the police still have not connected what happened inside the club to the shooting that took place outside of the club. If Adam Jones is cleared of everything except for being a 81k idiot, will/should the NFL reduce his suspension?
