Ex-Pro Baller Adam 'Pac Man' Jones
got into it on the set of the ESPN produced reality show 'Pros vs Joes'. The show pits regular Joe football players against recently retired and /or fired pro ballers. When one of the 'Joes' made Pac look bad the two got into fisticuffs. The LA Times reports: One of the better collisions was one at the goal line between Jones and a "Joe" named Dan Adams, a 5-foot-10 sales rep from Boston who played linebacker at Holy Cross. He set an NCAA single-game record with a staggering 21 solo tackles against Colgate. Anyway, Adams stuck Jones at the goal line, jarring loose the football. It was pretty funny, because Jones had been talking trash to that point, referring to Adams as "Waterboy." A few minutes after the hit, the two exchanged punches and had to be separated."He hit me 10 yards out of bounds, kind of a cheap shot," Adams said. "I couldn't sit there and not retaliate. You've got to have some pride and dignity."
