Adam 'Pacman' Jones Admitted Into Alcohol Treatment Center
The Dallas Cowboy's cornerback Adam 'Pacman' Jones was entered into an Alcohol Treatment Center after participating in a scuffle with one of his bodyguards. As of now, Jones is suspended for four games but could potentially miss more. "The league has said reinstatement will depend on strict compliance with treatment plans and an evaluation by 'clinical experts.'" (http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/27281805/) The incident occurred on October 7, 2008 at a private party when Jones and one of his bodyguards, which had been hired to keep him out of trouble, got into an argument. It has only been six weeks since Jones was reinstated from his 17-month suspension due to an accumulation of legal problems, including a connection to a shooting in Las Vegas. "Jones was arrested six times and was involved in 12 instances requiring police intervention after Tennessee drafted him in the first round in 2005. " (http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/27281805/). Jones was unable to participate for the entire 2007 season as a result of these allegations, and was traded to the Cowboys this past April.
