Shutdown Corner —
... idea, and I'll miss it. There aren't a lot of great
nicknames in sports anymore, and Pacman's one of them. I hate to see it
disappear because a guy can't look at a female without making it rain. We're

wanted to be called, we can do this, too.
Gracias, FanHouse.

If Pacman doesn’t want to be called Pacman, I guess I can honor that. But Adam Jones just sounds so boring for such a dynamic player on the field. So I put together a poll ...
Pacman No Longer, Call Him Adam Jones

... in order to give all related previous news. If I respected his wishes and went straight with Adam, nothing would register on LBS and you’d be wondering who I was talking about. OK, so I was getting ahead of myself there. Point is that Adam Schefter reported Pacman Jones no longer wants to be addressed by his nickname, and instead wants to be called by his real name from now on — Adam Jones.
