Pacman and Deion - seriously?
Pacman Jones, troubled Tennessee Titans cornerback, sat down with hard-hitting journalist (huh?) Deion Sanders to discuss his recent troubles and his meeting with the Commissioner.
Deion: You’ve been recently described as a poster boy for the NFL misconduct. How does that make you feel?
Fan Stop Central: Is that a serious question? Do you really expect him to say that he enjoys it?
Pacman: I really don’t like it … What is a poster boy anyway? Is it allegations? Is it proven guilty? When you’ve got dreds and jewlery?
Fan Stop Central: Yeah, Pacman, b/c every guy who wears dreds and jewlery has been made out to be a poster boy for misconduct. Don’t try to make this about race and appearance. You’ve been directly connected to 10 misconduct incidences. We’re pretty sure they had nothing to do with your hair.
…
Deion: So you’re nervous walking in with the Commissioner. What was the first thing that was said?
Pacman: Explain.
Deion: What did you say?
Pacman: I just explained myself. Told nothing but the truth.
Fan Stop Central: Very insightful, Pacman. Way to dig in deep, Deion.
…
(This is where it gets ignorant and humorous at the same time. Of all the things to want to know about from the “Vegas incident” this is what Deion tries to dig for?)
Deion: Tell me about Vegas.
Pacman: No comment.
Deion: Just tell me one thing. I know you can’t b/c of legalities … Was it $80,000?
Pacman: No comment.
Deion: You’re the Commissioner - Commissioner Pacman, and I came into your office with all the same allegations, all the same incidents, dredlocks, the jewlery … what should be my punishment?
Fan Stop Central: Deion, is your head screwed on right? Dredlocks and jewlery have nothing to do with this or anything else. Quit bringing it up! If you (and others) don’t stop bringing it up and making a point about it, it will never go away!
Pacman: I won’t answer that question. It wouldn’t be fair to myself.
Fan Stop Central: Pacman, that was a smart answer; however, what you continued to say wasn’t.
Pacman (cont’d): I’ll get punished, but hopefully whatever punishment I receive won’t jeopradize my career.
Fan Stop Central: So close, Pacman. So close, but it’s not the punishment that is going to jeopardize your career, it’s the misconduct and allegations and incidents that you’ve allowed yourself to be connected with that are going to jeopardize your career. Personal responsibility - it’s a kicker.
FSC will try to dig up the audio or video so you can check it out for yourself.
