We've reached Day 3 now of Pacmangate, and while it isn't nearly as annoying as this summer's Favregate was, it's beginning to get there. As of right now, Jerry Jones says that Pacman has done nothing wrong in his mind, even though he was reportedly furious that Pacman got in trouble again. Anyway, here's what Jerry has to say on the fight:
Did Jerry Jones just say "jiving?" I can't even remember the last time I heard that word used, maybe 1972, and I wasn't even alive then. I assume he means this kind of jiving, of course.
Jerry Jones has also made it clear that the Cowboys won't discipline Pacman, which is great if, you know, the Cowboys were actually the ones deciding his fate.
The truth is that Goodell will be deciding Pacman's fate, and he's apparently pretty damn pissed.
"I don't think there's any misunderstanding about the position that Adam has put himself in with respect to all of his behavior," Goodell said on ESPN radio Thursday. "I have been very clear with him on how his behavior cannot reflect poorly on himself, the team, or the NFL …
"I guess I would tell you that I'm disappointed that we're even discussing this at this point in time. We will have to wait for the facts, and understand exactly what happened before making any determinations."
As of right now, Pacman will play this Sunday, but that may not last too long. I'd have to think that if Goodell doesn't wind up kicking Pacman out of the league for this fight, Pacman will hardly be able to breathe without having the NFL watching his every move. And if he so much as jaywalks, he'll be done for good.
