April 11, 200719 yr Do you think this really bothers him? Having to sit out a year? Well it is costing him $1.6 million in salary and between 10 and 14% of career expectancy (for a CB), so yeah, I'd hope he is bothered by it. Great move by the NFL.
April 11, 200719 yr Great job by the commish. Maybe this will open the eyes of others and make them think before making certain choices in the lifestyle. Just wait until Inky, Pinky, Blinky and Clyde get to him! :scared:

It's costing him more than 1.6 million...If I'm not mistaken, I thought I heard on ESPN it was costing him more than 10 million sitting out this season. I could be wrong though.
April 11, 200719 yr It's costing him more than 1.6 million...If I'm not mistaken, I thought I heard on ESPN it was costing him more than 10 million sitting out this season. I could be wrong though. I believe ESPN said he would lose this years salary plus one years portion of his sign on bonus, I believe it totaled about 3.2mil.
April 11, 200719 yr I have a feeling Pacman might never see the field again(which wouldn't bother me in the least bit). Just think of the trouble he will be getting into with all of this free time...
April 11, 200719 yr I believe ESPN said he would lose this years salary plus one years portion of his sign on bonus, I believe it totaled about 3.2mil. :thumb: :thumb: Here it is exactly: If the suspension holds for all 16 games, Jones will forfeit roughly $3.1 million in wages. He was scheduled to make $1.29 million in base salary, and the Titans are expected to withhold the prorated portion of his signing bonus, which is an additional $1.81 million. The Tennessean
April 11, 200719 yr Being an NFL player you are supposed to be a positive role model. Period. It's a priveledge to play in the NFL. If everyone could do it, the money wouldn't be what it is. I don't agree with this at all. They absolutely do not sit around and dream of all the minds they can mold with positive behavior. They grow up being able to run fast, jump high and catch knowing that this will make them rich and famous, able to have shoe contracts, parties and starlets. Heck, several were getting in trouble through high school and college. It didn't just START happening!!!
April 11, 200719 yr I don't think the whole season was necessary. He wasn't convicted of any crimes. He may not have been charged with anything, but he was taken it for questioning twice..and failed to report those two incidents to his team.
April 11, 200719 yr WVU has to be thrilled with the exposure they're getting between Henry and Pacman.
