A Tale of Two Opposites

What kind of dude spits on a woman? Apparently, a guy of outstanding moral turpitude like Pacman Jones. And he's a serial spitter! And when he isn't spitting on women in separate incidents, dabbling in drug rings, getting drunk in public and otherwise causing trouble, Pacman finds time to play cornerback for the Tennessee Titans. The Titans, of course, are outraged. They suspended him for 1 game costing him a whole $50K. Way to get tough, guys. Especially after you left Albert Haynesworth out in the cold during his 4 game suspension for stomping on dudes in the face. Albert has been taken in by former Atlanta Falcons' player, Chuck Smith, during the suspension. I guess Albert will be back soon.

Contrast Pacman to Arkansas Fort-Smith basketball player Terrist Parramore, merely 18 years old. Terrist is in critical condition after being shot at a Halloween party in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Parramore confronted some guys at the party about inappropriately groping women attending the function. For his trouble, those same guys left the party only to return and shoot Parramore twice in the chest and lodge a bullet in his brain. Best wishes to the Parramore family.
