06:35 AM ET 06.24 | Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones took exception to racial comments made about him by radio personality Don Imus on Monday. Jones was unaware of the comments until a reporter played him a tape Monday night. "I'm truly upset about the comments," Jones said. "Obviously Mr. Imus has problems with African-Americans. I'm upset, and I hope the station he works for handles it accordingly. I will pray for him." Imus said through a spokesperson that he was misunderstood.

Adam Jones just needs to stay out of this. The Lady Of Rutgers could step to Imus because they were doing good in the society. I'm not saying you should just be disrespected, but Jones should let someone else handle this. Adam needs to get his own life together and take care of the things in his life..

Adam did a good job and at the end he said "I will pray for him." That is awesome to me. He could have gone off on him and the media but instead he chose to be the bigger man.
Imus is a joke. I don't even know why he is on the radio. I had never heared of this guy until the Rutgers comment. He is a chump.
Hopefully Adams' name will stop popping up on stupid posts like these...

Imus is a joke! It's very easy for people to talk trash about others behind the comfort of a mic or computer as I'm sure some internet tough guys will be on here to defend him and his thoughts. Be a man or Woman and say/share your thoughts with the people face to face.

Once again people jumping to conclusions before they get the facts. He was implying pacman was being picked on because he was black. America's legend, Imus has been around 30 years. Generates millions of dollars in revenues and was one of Time magazine's 100 most influencial people of all time. Maybe you should expand your horizons.

Jones needs to pray for himself: "Ye shall know them by their deeds....."
Keelee....are you sharing your thoughts face-to-face here? So, what's the difference? Everyone can see Imus' face while he is saying it....we're all just name tags in here.

Therrien Rocks that's a stupid question, what I was trying to get across was if I had a problem with someone or a group of people they would be 100% clear of my thoughts. Imus has a radio show, he has avenues to talk with Pacman, Rutgers b-ball team as he did. Not say a stupid comment, then after I'm sure pressure or common sense form his boss try and clear up his own words. Imus also has a history of sly comments like this so forgive me if I don't take him seriously.

Yea,he's so racist he has a black producer and two black cast members. Listen to his statement on his show this morning and all of you will feel so stupid for jumping on the media-hyping wagon.

Read the story again although poorly written it was Imus who said that HE would pray for Jones not the other way around.
