Suspended Titans cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones believes he should be allowed to return to his Titans team and $1.3 million salary.
“I think I did enough. I did pretty much everything Mr. Goodell asked me to do. So, all I can do is just wait and go back to speak with him,” Jones said in an interview in Sunday’s editions of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

I like Pacman because he makes all other NFL lawbreakers look better. He’s been arrested six times and questioned by police eleven times since being drafted out of West Virginia in 2005. This raises the bar for all other players, and indeed gives them more power when pleading forgiveness. Caught driving 95 mph in a school zone? At least you didn’t assault a stripper. Caught with a joint in your car trunk? At least a member of your entourage didn’t shoot three security personnel, paralyzing one from the waist down. Caught banging the owner’s daughter in a closet? At least you’re not being sued by a Las Vegas bouncer on the claims that you shot him and bit his ankle. Caught running a highly illegal dogfighting operation? At least…well, no excuse there.
Luckily Pacman has additional ventures waiting in the wings such as becoming a professional wrestler and collaborating on a hip-hop album. His first song, “Let it Shine”, is rumored to have the gayest title ever by a prospective rap mogul.
