Suspended Tennessee
Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones bought a full-page newspaper
advertisement to print an open letter in which he promised to regain
the trust of his team and fans. In the ad in the
sports section of Friday's editions of The Tennessean - Nashville's
daily newspaper - Jones told his family, coaches, teammates and Titans
fans he must reorganize his priorities. "In the past few weeks, I have learned a lifetime of lessons," the letter states. Jones writes of hoping to not only meet, but exceed the expectations people have of him. "The
first step in meeting these goals is for me to stop making the poor
choices that have put me in this position," the letter reads. Jones
said he plans to appeal his season-long suspension by NFL commissioner
Roger Goodell, the same person who will hear that appeal. Cincinnati
receiver Chris Henry, a teammate of Jones at West Virginia, also was
suspended. But Henry received an eight-game ban. In
his letter, Jones said his attorneys advised him to appeal the
suspension to "clarify some of the facts and address the unprecedented
punishment that was imposed." Jones first announced his intention of
appealing last week.
