Every year we read about seamy stories from the bottom of the pile; muscle-bound players doing whatever it takes to gain possession of the football. It’s all a bit weird, really, but no weirder than fans packing stadiums and planting themselves in front of television screens to watch grown men in costumes run full speed into each other.
In any event, courtesy of MDS st PFT, here’s the first such tale from 2008 and it involves “Adam” Pacman Jones. But unlike Jones’ time away from the game last year, he wasn’t the guy doing the grabbing. That would be Browns backup safety Nick Sorensen. Adam “Pacman” Jones said the Browns did a lot of cheap stuff in Sunday’s game. DB Nick Sorenson [sic] grabbing and squeezing Pacman’s groin region topped the list.
Pacman said that act occurred in the pileup after he muffed a punt.
“I told that dude, ‘Man, you’re lucky I’m trying to do better, because I would have got 15 yards for kicking your [rear],’” Pacman said. Oh, the humanity. I wonder if the Browns special teams routinely practices bottom-of-the-pile junk-grabbing during the Saturday walk-through. If so, I have an idea who runs that scout team.
As for Jones, maybe he has grown up a bit, because if this had happened at the club, there’s a pretty good chance somebody would’ve gotten shot.
