Another thug in Big D

As of Friday night, the trade that could send Adam “Pacman” Jones to the Dallas Cowboys was not yet nailed down.

I would say that I hope it doesn’t happen, but by this point it doesn’t matter.

Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones has made it clear that he likes thugs and outlaws like Terrell Owens and “Tank” Johnson — both of whom were kicked off their previous teams for misconduct.

Pacman will fit right in. Don’t be surprised if he is followed by Chad Johnson, the talented punk now feuding with the Bengals.

The usual explanation for clueless owners like this is that they want to “win at all costs.”

I think it’s more pathetic for Jerry. He likes the bad-boy image. It’s a phase most guys go through, but we outgrow it around 15 or 16.

And Jerry, who’s not real smart, doesn’t want to be thought of as conventional and boring.

So for him, the way to avoid that is to sign every felon as soon as they make bail.

I’m serious about this prediction: Do not be shocked if he signs Michael Vick when he gets out.

What a sad fall for a franchise that once had such upright leaders as Tom Landry and Roger Staubach.

Jerry wouldn't know the high road if it was spray-painted fluorescent orange.
