Not much, but still, I read a report earlier in the season that the cowboys in their own way asked him to cool down a little bit. Now this. The outcome is not looking good for pacman.

How stupid can one man be? He is lucky to be playing in the NFL, yet he still continues to do dumb, juvenile things. Grow up Pacman, or get out of the way so someone can take your spot who has a maturity level above that of a 5th grader.

This is going to dominate all NFL conversation for the rest of the week.

What I've heard from a couple of different media sources:
-Jones came up on his bodyguard while dude was using a urinal and cold-cocked him in the back of the head. Dude then turned around and hit Pacman back. Somewhere in the fracas a mirror was broken.
-there are at least 4 witnesses who are saying that Pacman appeared visibly intoxicated and was talking about "going to take care of business"
-the bodyguard told a reporter from CBS in Dallas that Pacman is prone to wild mood swings esp. when he's been drinking.
-the hotel refused to press charges, and the widespread speculation is that they don't want to become a Bartman-like pariah for bringing down Pacman and the Cowboys.
-Jerry Jones has stuck Calvin Hill on the case
-the bodyguard is a former law enforcement officer in some capacity who is paid by the Cowboys to keep Pacman out of trouble
-Pacman was attending a movie premiere just beforehand, so there should be loads of witnesses to verify if he was drinking or not

I texted a Cowboy I know a little and his response, "Not now, but not good"

What's really ironic is that one of the offshore sports books put the over/under on games Pacman plays before getting busted again is 5.5. Those bookies know what they are doing!

The hotel doesn't want to press charges so as to not stall the Cowboys momentum?

Am I reading that right, Icness?

They aren't pressing charges because it would be bad publicity for a Dallas hotel to get a Cowboy in trouble.

That's actually very impressive.
