Sports 5 Crimes That Could Get Pacman Jones Banned

Pacman Jones is well on his way to making the banned.

ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported Monday that oft suspended, recently reinstated Dallas Cowboys defensive back Adam “Pacman” Jones will be banned from the National Football League for life if he gets in trouble again. Pacman first made embarrassing headlines in 2007 as a member of the Tennessee Titans when he was involved in a Las Vegas strip club shooting that paralyzed an employee (and then visited another strip club right before meeting with Commissioner Roger Goodell to discuss his misconduct).

The Commish suspended Jones for the entire 2007-08 season, then reinstated him last April. But in October, the derelict defender made his shit list again and was suspended four games when he got into a fight with one of his bodyguards. Jones ended up going to rehab for alcohol abuse and, based on recommendations from clinical specialists, he’s been reinstated again. But now, Pacman has to either be good or be gone for good. Knowing him, it’s a matter of when, not if, he’ll wash up in the Canadian Football League. Below, we envisions what the final straw could be…

Jones, who has been arrested six times since he was drafted in 2005 (and involved in several more incidents where police were called), follows in the footsteps of Tank Johnson, who joined the 'Boys in 2007 after serving time for weapons charges. But they are only the latest Cowboys with criminal histories. After the jump, read about the history of Dallas miscreants who ran afoul of the law, either while a Cowboy or afterwards.
