The bad boy of talk-formatted radio, Don Imus, is in hot water again. This time over statements he made about troubled athlete Adam “Pacman” Jones.
Imus claims he was directing his sarcasm at the fact the police arrested Pacman Jones six separate times, inferring that the police were “picking on” Jones (not sure if I buy that one, but it is possible). I am not a fan of Don Imus, and we all know his history and tendency to say outrageous things; that is what he gets paid for. But the thing that is more outrageous was the sanctimonious statement made by Pacman:
Pacman “will pray for” Imus…perfect. Jones has led a “thug” life off of the football field. Shootings, assaults, obstruction of justice, and public intoxication are just a few things contained within Pacman’s resume. Forgetting all of the second chances he has been granted in his life, Pacman wants to see Imus punished. What a hypocrite!
And if Imus was truly expressing discontent with the police, it will serve to help vindicating him as a bigot, only to reveal him to be an idiot.
