PACMAN GETS INTO A PROS VS. JOES FIGHT

Adam “Pacman” Jones continues to find new and innovative ways to harm his chances of ever playing in the NFL again.
A free agent after being cut by the Cowboys, Jones is participating in Spike TV’s latest incarnation of Pros vs. Joes, a contrived competition between has-been and never-were professional athletes.
According to Sam Farmer of the Los Angeles Times, who attended one of the sessions, Pacman and one of the “Joes” got into a fight not long after said “Joe” made like Sheldon Brown on Reggie Bush during a game of three-on-three football in full pads.
The hit came from Dan Adams, a former linebacker at Holy Cross who once made 21 tackles in a single game. Pacman been calling Adams “Waterboy,” and Adams apparently imagined that Pacman had called him “needled–k.”
A few minutes after the hit, the two started punching each other, and they had to be separated. (I have an image in my mind of co-host Jay Glazer clinging to someone’s leg, a la Jeff Van Gundy.)
“He hit me 10 yards out of bounds, kind of a cheap shot,” Adams said. “I couldn’t sit there and not retaliate. You’ve got to have some pride and dignity.”
Pride and dignity? That would be a first for Pacman.
