NEW YORK -- Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones withdrew the appeal of his suspension Tuesday and will serve the one-year term imposed by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
"I understand my responsibilities to my teammates, the Titans and my fans and I am committed to turning my life around and being a positive member of the NFL," Jones said in a statement issued by his agent.

Well the CB signing earlier was for the best anyway.

Well, good luck to him. I hope things turn around for him.

I doubt it. I have a feeling this guy is a turd and a waste of talent. How does a guy have a meeting to discuss his future the same day he decides to go to a strip club when going to places like strip clubs are what landed him on the sidelines. Some people just don't get it and I have a feeling he's going to be another Ricky Waters.

I suspect that his attorney & NFLPA advised him not to proceed as the outcome would be the same and all he would do is subject him to another round of adverse publicity. A great talent, who now makes a choice be an NFL player or become a hoodlum.

yeah, the ball is in his court. if he is sincere...and i'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt in that regard...i hope he can get some sort of a support network and surrround himself with the kind of people who can be a positive influence and that he can get away from whomever he was hanging with before.

Good for Goodell. This firms up his image for the doubters. The writing was on the wall and wasn't likely to change.
