Will he shoot the ref if his guy loses?

Well, it seems as if Tennessee Titans cornerback/kick-returner/overall-waste-of-a-draft-pick Adam "PUNKman" Jones will have himself a hobby while he's sitting out a year (and awaiting jail time, which he will get if there is justice). He's done signed himself up to be a rassler (via The Tennessean):
Suspended Titans cornerback Pacman Jones will be able to take part in Sunday night's Total Nonstop Action Wrestling event, but not as a wrestler.

A Williamson County judge this morning approved modifications to a restraining order the Titans obtained on Friday to keep Jones out of the ring or from taking part in the event in any role.

The modifications allow Jones to participate in TNA events, but restrict him from being involved in any physical activity.

“No physical contact, no wrestling,’’ said Steve Underwood, chief operating officer for the Titans. “Our concern was always protecting our legitimate interest under the contract, and that is avoiding any risk of significant injury to him. … As long as that interest is protected, we are comfortable with whatever his level of participation is.’’
Well, isn't that special. Just one more reason for you to go out and buy your kid that limited edition #32 "PUNKman" jersey.
