The Boys put a lot efforts to protect Pacman in order to stay out of trouble. Jerry knows that the guy have lot potencial and is one of the key piece in our defense. They want to secure him no matters the cost.

Calling security: Cowboys seek to help Pacman

Pacman Jones' reported meeting with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell apparently came and went without incident. Longtime Cowboys observer Jean-Jacques Taylor of the Dallas Morning News thinks the suspended cornerback might finally be ready to succeed in the NFL. Taylor sees a strong support system around Jones, in addition to a security detail:

"The Cowboys also have set Pacman up with some of the best security personnel in the NFL. They are with him virtually 24-7. And the head of that security team is an old-school expert who has handled every kind of situation imaginable. He has handled athletes with much higher profiles than Pacman over the last 20 years, so he is not intimidated. Or impressed. That said, he likes Pacman and thinks he has a chance to straighten out his life, if that's what he wants to do."​

NFL teams often hire retired police officers and FBI agents to head their security departments. The retired officers usually have ties to local law enforcement. Not everyone thinks this is a healthy arrangement. In this case, the Cowboys have much to gain if Jones realizes his potential as a dynamic return specialist and talented cover corner. At the very least, the Dallas community figures to benefit if a security detail can help Jones live within the law.

In this case, yes that is true.

babysisiters- security, whatever is needed to help him get started in the right direction. Hopefully by next year he won't need it.

The first step is always the hardest.

The biggest question in my mind is what is going to happen once he gets paid.

For some reason not all of JJT's original remarks were quoted so here's the rest for those that might have missed it.

I saw Pacman Jones at three different functions this weekend – a party, a barbecue and an informal workout at SMU – and came away with the impression that he has a chance to succeed in Dallas.

I haven't always thought that. Anyone who reads me regularly knows that.

But Jones has finally surrounded himself with a few people who can help him succeed.

Deion Sanders, Michael Irvin, Rev. Rickie Rush of the Inspiring Body of Christ Church all have money and status.

Their lives are rich and complete with or without Pacman. So they can be real with him.
They don't have to pull punches. They can be brutally honest about their expectations for him. They don't need or want anything from him.

Trust me, he appreciates that. Although he loves his boys from the hood, they all need something from him – namely money and access. They serve as enablers.

Would you tell your golden goose he was doing something stupid? Most of us wouldn't.

Pacman insists it is. After all, he knows this is his last chance to play in the NFL.

Nothing guarantees Pacman success in Dallas, but by surrounding himself with the right people, it gives him a much better chance to achieve it.
