While Titans Coach Jeff Fisher said the team recently had given Pacman Jones permission to explore options with other teams, one of the suspended cornerback's agents deemed such permission "irrelevant" in terms of getting the sides closer to any sort of resolution. Asked if the Titans were officially finished with Jones, Fisher said no. The Titans and Cowboys have reportedly discussed a trade involving Jones and may be willing to offer a fifth-round draft pick. Sports Illustrated reported on its Web site Thursday that the Cowboys have offered the Titans a player and a late-round pick.

The Dallas Cowboys still need another CB in the first round. If they are smart that's what they would do...........

This story line just honked it's horn as it crossed the "excessive" border line!

Soon, I anticipate that the media will conspire to have the players wear makeup and cultivate nicknames like "Stone Cold," or "The Undertaker." The media does what it can to issue white and black cowboy hats, and to create a few villains each year. This season we'll have a few villains, a few Cinderellas, a few Heroes, and a heartwarming Comeback story. Could you imagine today's media and editorialship transplanted to the late 60's? The Jets-Colts game? Daaaaaamn.

when is his suspension officially over? Or was it an indefinite one?

March 28, 2008  08:18 AM ET

So, if the trade is made and settled and all parties are pleased, will Goodell be forced to reinstate pacman whether he wants to or not? What is the resolution to this ongoing saga? Who's in charge here? Let's hear from you, Mr. Goodell.

March 28, 2008  08:24 AM ET

the suspension was for 2007 but according to the stipulation he has to apply for reinstatement..

March 28, 2008  08:31 AM ET

he's a loser, a waste of life & talent!

March 28, 2008  09:05 AM ET

Why would they want this man. He should never be allowed to play in the league again.

March 28, 2008  09:21 AM ET

If the Cowboys got Pacman, I think Jerry Jones has enough "power" to talk Goodell into reinstating Pacman. All he has to do is show the support system(Calvin Hill for example) that they have down in Dallas and prove that they can help Pacman stay out of trouble.

March 28, 2008  09:25 AM ET

Agreed jj730!

A fact not known to many regarding the retention of Calvin Hill's services as "guidance counselor"!

March 28, 2008  09:39 AM ET

Never mind "a player and late round pick" what will Dallas offer Roger Goodell to re-instate PacMan ???

March 28, 2008  10:02 AM ET

Of course the Titans have to say for now they aren't finished with him, even if they are, otherwise the Cowboys or anyone else, could wait until they cut him and the Titans get nothing.

March 28, 2008  10:12 AM ET

Get this over with!!!! Either way, I'm sick of this story!!!!

What a joke. You hammer on Steeler fans about a couple domestic violence incidents during the off season....yet champion the Cowboy way as an example of helping the misguided soul to clean living. I hear he will appear on Micheal irvin's radio show. What will they do, trade drug and stripper stories?

A couple of "domestic violence incidents"? You make it sound ok. And please, your owner cuts a WR who doesn't due to much, but keeps the Pro Bowl LB who slaps his girlfriend's glasses off her face and breaks her cell phone in half? Other than Tank Johnson, what Cowboy on the current roster has been involved in legal troubles? And Tank's problems didn't even happen in Dallas.

"What Jimmy Harrison was doing and how the incident occurred, what he was trying to do was really well worth it," he said of Mr. Harrison's initial intent with his son. "He was doing something that was good, wanted to take his son to get baptized where he lived and things like that. She said she didn't want to do it."

And the Steerlers owner justifies slapping a woman around? Please, I don't want to hear from Steelers fans at all...

March 28, 2008  11:02 AM ET

He doesn't deserve to be in the NFL.

I never come on here claiming the Steelers are the pristine pillars of society. They have had a couple inexcusable incidents...much like most of the league. However, the Steelers would NEVER,EVER entertain bringing a player of Pac man Jones into their organization...let alone pretend that he will be the better man for the experience.
