Pacman breaks the law (again)

Pacman Jones was cited for speeding and driving without a license just 4 days before a hearing with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Pacman met with Goodell last Friday to plead his case for leniency after being slapped with a year long suspension for conduct detrimental to the league.

I’m guessing this latest incident with the cops didn’t help his case for a reduced suspension. It’s kind of like the original disciplinary hearing he had with Goodell. The commish was reportedly set to give Pacman a six-month suspension but upped it to a full-year when he found out Jones visited a strip club the night before.

It’s not like anyone is expecting Pacman Jones to transform into Mother Teresa, but even kids with Tourettes syndrome have more sense than this.

And speaking of Pacman, we here at the Smoke have gone high-tech. Our new java feature to the right of the screen offers you minute-by-minute coverage of the time elapsed between Pacman’s arrests. Place your bets quickly cause the Las Vegas district attorney is still considering issuing a warrant stemming from that little incident at the Minxx nightclub.
