go back in time a little, he could have made over $6 mill easy over 3 yrs with the titans had he made different choices (maybe a pay raise if he played better). instead he ends up paying the team half a mill, being suspended thus costing you money, and taking a pay cut to go to dallas. and now he is in tHe CFL.....this is why it is important to act right (not to mention the legal fees). life could have been so different....not to mention if you behave people may pay you past your prime because you are a "leader" on the team (look at the NE LBs). i just think its unfortunate.

  1. I'm actually surprise that this ungrateful loser still has a team who is willing to take a chance with him consdiering his colorful past. It's players like him that makes it difficult for a team that would like to give other players with similar childhood upbringing a chance to turn a negative into a positive. The people who really suffers from his negative rep + off season antics are his siblings, mom basically his family members. Whatever works

  2. Pacman could have made more than $6M. He had 2 very good seasons in Tennessee, he probably would have signed an extension or by this point he would have had a pretty good free agent contract. I think Pacman would probably be a top 15 corner right now if he never sits out and improved from his first 2 seasons.

  3. i do too...i think he would have been near early darryl green status when he use to lock folks down and return kicks....not quite primetime/rod woodson though but reasonably good at both.....
