Jones' "Being Rebellion" Quote

I wish I had a transcript of the recent interview between Michael Irvin and Adam "Pacman" Jones. Internet searches reveal little. Jones tried to explain the behavior that got him in trouble with the NFL, saying he was "being rebellion." Jim Rome has already weighed in on "being rebellion"thoroughly, and he was hilarious. I have nothing to add, but if I can get a hold of a transcript, it could help me decide if Jones' "being rebellion" statement, which includes the term "scrip club," is worthy of The Blogadier General Quote of the Year 2008.

So far, nothing else has struck this publisher as particularly noteworthy, Obama's bitter remark perhaps, but only because everyone else made a big deal out of it. Hopefully, Obama's statement won't make my radar by '09. It's really not Quote of the Year material, unless it becomes widely attributed to helping Hillary Clinton win the Democratic presidential nomination.

Maybe Rosie O'Donnell can say something about Donald Trump again. Rosie v. Trump Part II might wield some good lines. Madonna certainly hasn't said or done anything outrageous. All she wants to do is sell her new album, the right way. Where's the controversy Madonna? Come on. You used to deliver!

Perhaps Charles Barkley can say something memorable during the NBA Playoffs. Right now I have little to work with, and we're into April.
