Pacman Jones gets reprieve

A judge in Murfreesboro ruled today that public intoxication and disorderly conduct charges against Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones will be dropped, if Jones behaves himself.

Rutherford County General Sessions Court Judge David Loughrey agreed to dismiss the charges, but not until he reviews Jones' deportment after six months.

Jones is also ordered to stay away from the Sweetwater nightclub, where police say he got into an argument with a woman, refused to leave the club and shouted profanities at the officers.

He was also ordered to pay court costs on the disorderly conduct charge.

The player will have to stay out of trouble with the law and complete the anger management counseling he's already enrolled in through the NFL.

Jones attended the hearing today, but declined to talk to reporters.
