When Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones was reinstated this summer after a suspension of a year and a half, he was warned that screwing up one more time could end his NFL career.According to a Dallas TV station, Jones screwed up one more time.
CBS 11 in Dallas is reporting (via Pro Football Talk) that Jones got into a fight with his bodyguard on Tuesday night in a Dallas hotel. The report says that Jones was involved in a confrontation in a bathroom, that a mirror was broken and that Jones left without paying his bar tab.
Jones was in the locker room today when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell addressed the team. Goodell said that, as far as he knew, Jones was conducting himself in a way that reflects well on himself, the Cowboys and the NFL.
UPDATE: CBS 11 reports that Jones was with a woman who drove him away from the scene before police arrived. No police report was filed.
Cowboys Spokesperson Rich Dalrymple said in a statement to CBS 11:
"The organization has no information regarding the incident involving Adam Jones, therefore they had no comment."
Jones did not respond when CBS 11 tried to contact him for comment.

Current progress report for Adam Jones: "Still does not play well with others." I hope Goodell lets him stay around, though. That way he can continue to get burned in coverage.

Its funny they are parodying "pac man" jones in the next blitz game. The new england regulars have a player named "packrat " james who is a perfect knock off of jones.

Leopards can't change their spots. This was inevitable. Where was his backup bodyguard to throw down with the guy?

Is anyone surprised by this latest development. The Cowboys will just find another convict to return punts and get burned in coverage. The meltdown is coming soon.....

This is another thing that will be blown out of proportion no matter how big or small it will. Media now adays is just disgusting any more. If him and his bodyguard got in a scuffle oh well that is not that serious. It could have been a misunderstanding. Iam sick of turning on ESPN or other sports news and seeing them turn everything T.O, Chad Johnson and others say into top headlines. Its enough already go report something that is worth reporting.

cboy fan is dumbest poster ever said...
Yeah your right Jerry Jones was dumb for getting Deion Sanders. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Who let you post that on here seriously. Take your garbage A$$ comments somewhere else. Deion was on the of the best CB's of all time. You say he was a waste of money, but you are a waste of good air. Someone stop your dumb A$$ from breathing it so us smart people can have it.

If there is no police report and just a few people who say it happened this way, did it really happen to this extent, or is ESPN (who is always jumping on negitive suggestions) and bloggers like this one who blow it up to make it seem like they have an inside track on it just trying to feed a fire that is not even a spark?

All I can say is, Thank God he's not the Titans' problem any longer! Good riddance! He was a punk when he was here in Tennessee and I see he hasn't changed one bit.

Pacman...how many chances given to you are you going to crap on? You have got to realize that at some point the NFL is going to say "enough is enough". You are a talented player that insists on acting like you're untouchable. That you can do anything you want and nothing will happen. It's time to grow up and take responsibility for your life and your actions. What are you going to do when you get thrown out of the league and lose the millions you depend on? When (not if) that happens, it will all be on you. You who refused to grow up and act like a man. When that day comes, I won't feel sorry for you, I'll just say "it's about time". Time to wake up and smell the coffee Pac.

The Cowboys took a chance knowing it is what it is and didn't give up much as far as they're concerned. The only problem is that the other guys in their secondary are not playing as good as they anticipated and there are some injuries. To the kkk cowboys fans who comment, grow the hell up. Go skins!

If blowhard Deion was as good as he and a few idiot writers thought he was he would be almost half as good as Darrell Green and Aeneus Williams. He was a lot better punt returner than CB. He was a wimp that was afraid to tackle anyone. The play I saw him stand still and let a receiver run by him because he didn't want to hurt his fingernails, I would have put him on the bench for a few games.
