About the Author
AGM Linebacker and I will bring the pain.
I'm a sports fanatic. I hail from Nelson County Virginia, and thats where I learned to be a Virginia Cavalier fan. I also learned to be a Dallas Cowboys fan because I hated how good the Redskins were doing. I've played sports at almost every level with the exception of being a fulltime professional, as a result I have a great perception on the sporting world. I love to talk sports and I've never been shy to share my opinion with someone.

Pacman Who? Call Me Adam!
| 11
|
In news coming out of Dallas today newly acquired corner back Adam Pacman Jones is making it official he wants to drop the Pacman from his name choosing to only go by his given name Adam Jones.
This is one of those cosmetic moves that many athletes make when facing adversity. Similar to when a person will cut their hair before going to court, the name change symbolizes a rebirth and a change in attitude.
Jones changing his name is a nice little gesture but it will mean very little if he is unable to change his actual actions. Understandably the Pacman Jones image was not working well for him. However, I highly doubt it was the name that caused him to want to make it rain at every opportunity he had. Let's hope for Adam's sake the name change will lead to a change in attitude in his personal life and better choices.
