Adam Pacman Jones will Play Against the Baltimore Ravens
After it was thought the his season was done, it appears that Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones will play on Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens. Jones had suffered a herniated disk in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers almost two weeks ago.
Dallas Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips announced on Wednesday that the controversial Jones would play against the Baltimore Ravens. Adam “Pacman” Jones hurt his back in the first quarter against the Pittsburgh Steelers when he scrambled to recover a muffed punt and was pulled out of the resulting dog pile awkwardly by a Steelers player. Jones played the rest of the game against Pittsburgh.
Adam “Pacman” Jones has certainly had an interesting season. Jones was reinstated to the NFL by commissioner Roger Goodell shortly before the first game of the season. He then went on to play in 6 games before he was once again suspended by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, for a fight that took place in a Dallas hotel. The game against the Pittsburgh Steelers was Jones’ first game back from the suspension.
Jones had missed the entire 2007 NFL season after several arrests and investigations, including one involving a shooting at a Las Vegas men’s club.
Other injury issues affecting the Dallas Cowboys, who have lost a large number of players to injury throughout the season include strong safety Roy Williams and rookie running back Felix Jones, who were both ruled out for the rest of the season.
In addition to Adam “Pacman” Jones, it is expected that starting quarterback Tony Romo, who suffered a back strain against the New York Giants, will play against the Baltimore Ravens.

I think it is preposterous that they are letting this guy play. Pacman Jones has had a ridiculous number of chances and continues to get himself in trouble. Gary was right in the new Sports Agent Corner: second chances are well and good, but 13th chances, as in the case of Pacman Jones, are a little much.
Sadly, the fact that he is playing is not surprising in the slightest considering his owner is an attention whore who cannot seem to discern the thin line between taking reasonable risks and making dumb decisions. In my mind, the entire Pacman experiment was a dumb decision.
