The most troubled player in the NFL finds himself on Roger Goodell's bad side yet again. Adam "Pacman" Jones has been suspended by the NFL for the umpteenth time, less than a week after returning to practice with the Dallas Cowboys.
Jones and his entourage were allegedly involved in a locker room squabble on Thanksgiving Day after the Cowboys' 34-9 throttling of the Seattle Seahawks.
But the real hard-hitting action happened after the game when Jones and his entourage skipped at least five people to get to the front of the food line.
While innocent bystanders gasped and cried, Jones pushed his way to the front, and ripped the biggest drumstick from the turkey. Players and reporters waiting in line stood dumbfounded as his bodyguards carried trays of sweet potato pie and macaroni and cheese to their table.
When warned that the biggest drumstick was reserved for head coach Wade Phillips, Jones allegedly scowled, took a menacing bite of the well-cooked poultry, and spit it at the feet of the Jonas Brothers.
"We will be reviewing the tapes and speaking with witnesses before coming to a conclusion on Jones' future," wrote Roger Goodell in a statement released early Saturday morning.
"[Jones] understands that he is on a very short leash. We would like to fully understand all of the facts before making a life-changing decision on his future with the NFL...We may have to look into scaring him straight like MTV used to do."
This incident would be added to a long list of problems Jones has had since entering the NFL. As fans grow weary with his antics, the fact that he is exceptionally talented continues to afford him more opportunities.
Plans for Jones' return have been placed on hold while the NFL investigates the allegations against the oft-suspended cornerback. He was expected to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers next Sunday.
There's no word on if he'll be allowed to practice while the NFL comes to a decision, but Wade Phillips will be waiting patiently.
