NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A woman is seeking an arrest warrant against suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, claiming he punched her at an Atlanta strip club.
Fulton County Magistrate Court officials told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Wanda S. Jackson asked for the warrant after a Jan. 3 altercation at the Body Tap Strip Club.

Jackson, an attorney, says in her filing that she was in the club's office when an angry Jones accused managers of stealing his money and bracelet.

Jackson told police the next day she was at the club because she was handling a divorce case that involved Adam Jones.

Sparano Visits Miami, Will Interview Again

MIAMI - A touchdown by the front-runner for the Dolphins' head coaching job suggests he may be about to seal the deal.

Sparano was accompanied by GM Jeff Ireland. They met for an interview in Dallas on Jan. 5.
