Today, April 16, 2023 - NFL commisioner Roger Goodell announces that the NFL Draft this season will be postponed until a later date.

Why you ask?

Apparently Pacman Jones has requested for reinstatement again.

This marks the 1,568th time Jones has applied for reinstatement to the league.

Commisioner Goodell cites a fair and proper look at this special milestone reinstatement application.

Jones has now officially set a new record for the amount of reinstatement applications ever recieved by the NFL's front offices.

Whose record did he break you might ask?

OJ Simpson had applied 1,567 times for reinstatement to the league.

Apparently after his 1,567th application he realized that the NFL had no room for a killer on one of it's many teams.

Pacman must not realize that he has reached the ripe age of 39 this year.

He obviously has not got the picture.

The NFL wants nothing to do with his partying and rapping.

When asked why Commissioner Goodell had let this madness go on for such a long time he stated, "It's America... we do what we got to do. Everyone has the right to apply and we must treat every application with sincerity and fairness."

Maybe Jones just wants to leave his legacy on the game of football even if he is never allowed to play again.

The world may never know.

One thing is for sure, when OJ set that high record we never thought it would be broken.

Our hats go off to you Pacman. Keep makin' it rain!

  1. funny stuff

  2. 7460 reads and ONE comment. Thats bad, really really bad......

    1. Yeah, something seems fishy here...

  3. maybe i missed something, but that just made me kind of sad.

  4. This is really lame. What's even lamer is that you've sat there for two days now hitting refresh to get your views up.

    1. I mentioned this earlier, but what the heck...

      There are websites out there that can send a consistent # of hits to an article even when nobody's viewing it. I'm not saying that's what happened here, but when there are over 7,000 reads and NO comments...

  5. haha true greg

  6. I didn't mind it but I think this is pretty fishy all the veiws and 7 coments

  7. agreed

  8. It happens on some of the articles. Either the people simply agree, and go onto another article, don't get the attempt at humor, or, can't think of anything witty to say.

  9. even worse, the few comments talk about the few comments, not the story

  10. Thanks Gabe. I was going to state the obvious that no one had actually commented on the article other than the silly amount of hits, then I decided to not comment since this whole thread is silly, but then I decided, "What the heck...", this article was written on a ridiculous premise, and the comments should be just as ridiculous.

    Now, I'm going to find the longest article on BR tonight and separate every paragraph into individually spaced sentences. Just for the fun of it!

    1. LOL ... I'm glad I decided to read the comments on this. Michael, you just made my night.

      I think I'm gonna go refresh my article a few times.

  11. This is a crazy article. Keep up the great work!
