The guy is a a blight on society and gives all black athletes a bad name. He needs to be suspended again.

i don't see nothing wrong with throwin some bills in the air and brutha's have altercations from time to time...
until he breaks the law, ain't no big deal...
and Jerruh gonna do whatever it takes to keep him on the field, especially with newman out...
What a stupid ass. We'll see what the commish has to say.
Fighting your own bodyguard! Nice.
bodyguard? probably just his babysitter.
Yeah, he was hired by the Cowboys to keep an eye on slackman. Surely he's told Jerry Jones what actually happened, since he's on the payroll. That cover story is about as lame as any they've ever come up with.
You are right on both.
Pac-Man didn't break any laws (that we know of) and no charges were filed so the Commish will probably not do anything. Still, if you have a disagreement, handle it like a man and not some wannabe gangsta thug.
If the media keeps this story going he will be suspended.

Officers arrived at the trendy downtown hotel around 11:03 p.m. Tuesday night and didn't leave until 1:30 a.m. Police originally reported the incident happened at 1:30 a.m. but later admitted a mistake.
An incident report stated police were called because of a disturbance between two men and a woman who were arguing and fighting.
The incident was over when police arrived. Hotel employees said they had overheard a scuffle in the men's restroom. Police believe an assault had occurred.
Hotel management said a glass light switch plate was broken but said everything was fine. The hotel bill was paid.
The police report said Adam Jones hit Tommy Jones in the bathroom, and it appeared Adam Jones had been drinking alcohol. When Tommy Jones declined to press charges, the police ended their investigation.
Adam Jones and three teammates were at the hotel's nightclub, PM, attending a private event for the rapper Ludacris, who was in town promoting a movie and his new album.
When the party was over, Adam Jones and a small group moved to the lobby area, where problems arose.
A Dallas police officer who asked that his name not be published told WFAA-TV he was at the scene during the incident.
"At first I thought he [Adam Jones] and his bodyguard were playing," he said.
The officer said he heard Adam Jones ask his bodyguard, Tommy Jones, "Why are you following me?" The officer said he then heard what sounded like a mirror shattering.
The officer said the men were separated and said, "It was no big deal."
James Shepherd, who owns several record stores in Texas and Oklahoma, said he was invited to the party by Ludacris' record label.
Shepherd said he witnessed Adam Jones yelling at his girlfriend inside the men's bathroom of the hotel.
"As soon as I opened the door, I saw him arguing with a female," said Shepherd, a Grand Prairie resident. "One of the people from the hotel grabbed me from the back and pulled me away. He was yelling at her and he had his finger all in her face."
A source close to Adam Jones denied the incident with the woman took place.
The episode raises questions about whether the Cowboys can trust Adam Jones.
Jerry Jones said he does, and seemed surprised the cornerback got into trouble.
"Candidly, it never occurred to many of us that he might have an incident that would be anywhere public, or close to being public, with an individual that was sitting there to keep that from happening," Jerry Jones said.
"He has no room to wiggle. The very reason I am sitting here shows how little room he has to wiggle. He is ... on a high wire without a net."
How Goodell will respond to the incident is unclear. Adam Jones has been arrested six times and involved in 13 incidents requiring police intervention since entering the league in 2005.
"The reality is, I don't think there's any misunderstanding about the position Adam has put himself in with respect with his behavior," Goodell said on the radio show.
Shirley Dunn-Hanks, the general manager of the Joule, declined comment Thursday. Any damage to the restroom where the altercation took place had been repaired.
Adam Jones, who practiced Thursday and is expected to start Sunday's game at Arizona, apologized to his teammates for the distraction.

It's amazing that Jerry continues to say that Pacman has "no wiggle room" but then won't suspend the ing s bag.
He can't, if he suspends him one game, he's acknowleging that there was an incident and Pac is suspended by the league again.
If it wasn't Pacman Jones this wouldn't even be a story. People get into to arguements all the time big ing deal. You guys are buying the media hoopla just like they want you to. The guy is still allowed to be a human being. Its not as if he got into some kind of altercation at a club or bar.
I've never been in a shoving match with another person in public that caused the police to be called. Nobody else on the Cowboys has been in a shoving match that caused the police to be called. Pacman Jones can't stay out of trouble and we're only a month into the season? Please. I'm fully aware of media feeding frenzies, but don't even try making excuses for the man.
If it wasn't Pacman Jones there wouldn't have been an incident, because only Pacman Jones is stupid enough to get into trouble when he's on a "zero tolerance" leash by the NFL and has millions of dollars hanging in the balance.
