Atlanta strip club shooting final straw as Cowboys cut Pacman

Try as he might to keep Adam “Pacman” Jones on the roster, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on Wednesday cut the talented cornerback who might wind up as a case study for wasted potential.

Earlier in the day, ESPN informed the Cowboys and the NFL that it plans to air a piece for its “Outside the Lines” program that includes never-before-seen footage of Pacman Jones’ apparent involvement in a June 2007 nightclub shooting when he was still with the Tennessee Titans. The incident occurred in a suburban Atlanta strip club.

At the time of the incident, Pacman Jones was already under a one-year suspension by the NFL for being involved in a Las Vegas shooting earlier that year.

“It was unexpected. It was a surprise,” said Pacman Jones’ agent, Worrick Robinson. The transaction will become official Feb. 9, when NFL teams can make waiver requests.

NFL PING

FReepmail scott says to be added to, or to be taken off the NFL Ping list... This is a fairly high volume ping list

[Allegra]

I’m sure you’ve already been pingd, but just in case... ;-)

[PurpleMan]

No. 6 overall of the 2005 NFL Draft

How the mighty have fallen.

Hey? Who was the head coach there? Rodriguez, right?

Look what Michigan has to look forward to.

[massgopguy]

No Kick-Offs or Punts retirned for touchdowns. No Interceptions. No relevent tackles. Why was he on a Pro team anyway?

[AbeKrieger]

There’s always the Oakland Raiders... he’d fit right in and be a folk hero, representative of the population.

[doodad]

I remember when that happened. Funny thing, of all the strip joint areas in Atlanta he went to the lowest class area.

[Badeye]

I’ll just note it was amusing watching Pacman Jones cover my Bengals Chris Henry a few weeks back...lotta punchlines from me and my friends when that game was played.

As for this idiot...well, he’s an idiot with a bunch of Jerry Jones money....which is the big idiot?

Discuss amongst yourselves.

[DesertSapper]

About freaking time we got rid of that loser! Hey Jerry, can I add a few more names for you to erase from the roster???

[Carley]

Recently Imus referred to this miscreant as a ‘lovely young man’.

[TexasCajun]

You can take the gansta outta da hood, but you can't take da hood outta the gansta!

[jarofants]

Look Out Canadian strippers.

[jarofants]

Jerry Jones is an idiot with a bunch of Jerry Jones money.
Classless owner is the only Owner that has a re pore with Al Davis.

Gadookz, luv! You've got a mean streak in you

But I love you any way 'cause I'm... just putty in your hands!!!!

[Weatherman Bill]

They’re just freeing up money under the salary cap to pick up Plaxico.

[Red Badger]

[Badeye]

No disputing.

[txroadkill]

What we need is a good coach, so if you know of any that would like to work for Dallas have them go out and commit a crime so Jerry will notice.

[Arrowhead1952]

Not work safe!

LOL....and don’t forget the Arena league...oh, wait..they suspended operations..

[jarofants]

The Arena league should get in line for a bail out.

[ken5050]

What's with the NFL and all there "warddrobe malfunctions?"

BTW, thanks for the link....

[jarofants]

Thats better than Janet Jackson.

[Arrowhead1952]

Actually, I got the original in an email some time ago. Just google Bambi MacAfee images.

Also, NOT SAFE FOR WORK!

[Centurion2000]

The Arena league should get in line for a bail out.

Bring back the XFL already. While they're at it, let's get 8 tracks queued up for a new rennaissance as well.

[BOATSNM8]

Yeah, Phillips has no discipline on this team. If I see Romo smile one more time after an interception, I’m gonna blow. We need Shanahan.

[IrishPennant]

Typical 2008 Dallas Cowboys Huddle:

[jarofants]

I just herd on Headline News that the Porn Industry wants a bail out. Man I hate to see Ron Jeremy co hungry.

[big'ol_freeper]

I’m shocked I tell you, shocked!! I was sure he would go on the straight and narrow once he signed with the ‘boys. < /sarcasm>

[AppyPappy]

He pronounces them ‘skrip clubs”.

[blackie]

You nailed it Bender!

[Proud_texan]

"Typical 2008 Dallas Cowboys Huddle"

Very, very old jokes but what the heck...

You do, of course, know what the call the Cowboys huddle?

Or..

What do they call the Dallas Cowboys dressed in suits?

The defendants.

[IrishPennant]

Yeah - Old but good...I think that goes back almost a decade or so now.

[Proud_texan]

Jones bought the Cowboys in '89 so more like two decades...

Gads I'm getting old.

[IrishPennant]

Great football died with the departure of Tom Landry, George Allen and Don Shula - IMHO.

Although as a Skins fan I admit it lived on life support for a short time with early Gibbs.

[brooklin]

“They’re just freeing up money under the salary cap to pick up Plaxico.”

I bet they are in negotiations with Mike Vick.

[Proud_texan]

I was a Landry era Cowboy fan but I always thought that Gibbs was probably the best ever.

Three championships with three different QBs is pretty amazing. It's one thing to win with a great QB but with three, um, more modestly talented players (sorry, but..) well, that's special.

[Weatherman Bill]

What we need is a good coach, so if you know of any that would like to work for Dallas have them go out and commit a crime so Jerry will notice.

Maybe Bill Cower could get caught smuggling a bale of marijuana across the border?

"Cocaine Wayne" Fontes is still available.

[IrishPennant]

I’m a firm believer that the Skins of that era were great because of the front line. Gibbs, of course, but Joe Bugal and those Hogs up front. Mark Ripian was good, but not great - The front line gave him such incredible protection that I could have been a good QB.
