Adam 'Pacman' Jones arrested, charged with assault of an officer
June 7 - Former NFL defensive back Adam "Pacman" Jones is facing several charges in Kentucky, including assault of a police officer and public intoxication.
WHIO TV 7 in Ohio reported that Jones was arrested on Friday night and booked into the Kenton County Jail early Saturday morning.
Jones, 41, played 12 seasons in the NFL for four teams, including an eight-year run with the Cincinnati Bengals from 2010-17 that included All-Pro honors in 2014 and a Pro Bowl selection in 2015.
This is not his first run-in with the law. Most recently, Jones was arrested at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Airport in 2023 on charges of alcohol intoxication, terroristic threats and disorderly conduct.
The NFL suspended Jones for the entire 2007 season for numerous violations of the NFL's personal conduct policy. He also missed the 2009 season.
Drafted in the first round (sixth overall) by Tennessee in 2005, Jones recorded 17 interceptions and 509 tackles in 146 games (104 starts) with the Titans (2005-06), Dallas Cowboys (2008), Bengals and Denver Broncos (2018).

Trump attends UFC championship fight in New Jersey, taking a break from politics, Musk feud
President Donald Trump walked out to a thunderous standing ovation just ahead of the start of the UFC pay-per-view card at the Prudential Center on Saturday night, putting his public feud with tech billionaire Elon Musk on hold to instead watch the fierce battles inside the cage. Trump was accompanied by UFC President Dana White and the pair headed to their cageside seats to Kid Rock's 'American Bad Ass.' Trump and White did the same for UFC's card last November at Madison Square Garden, only then they were joined by Musk. Trump shook hands with fans and supporters — a heavyweight lineup that included retired boxing champion Mike Tyson — on his way to the cage. Trump was joined by his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, along with son Eric Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Trump shook hands with the UFC broadcast team that included Joe Rogan. Rogan hosted Trump on his podcast for hours in the final stages of the campaign last year. UFC fans went wild for Trump and held mobile devices in their outstretched arms to snap pictures of him. Trump arrived in time for the start of a card set to include two championship fights. Julianna Peña and Merab Dvalishvili were scheduled to each defend their 135-pound championships. UFC fighter Kevin Holland won the first fight with Trump in the building, scaled the cage and briefly chatted with the President before his post-fight interview. ___

Fans go wild over 'turbo hot' WNBA star Sophie Cunningham as she poses with Caitlin Clark in barely-there outfit
Sophie Cunningham wasn't healthy enough to play for the Indiana Fever on Saturday night, but she still did enough to send social media crazy over her arrival outfit in Chicago. The Fever beat Angel Reese and Co with ease in the first ever WNBA game held at United Center - even with injured duo Caitlin Clark and Cunningham playing the role of assistant coaches on the sidelines. And before the game had even begun, Cunningham had set fans wild with her bold fit, posing for photos with Clark during their arrival at the arena. Taking to X, one labeled the Australian 'turbo hot', while another added: 'I'd let Sophie Cunningham ruin my life.' A third said: 'Sophie Cunningham is a total babe,' while a fourth noted: 'Sophie Cunningham could save my life.' On TikTok and Instagram before the game, Cunningham revealed her pregame outfit to her followers, pairing a sheer barely-there top with black shorts and a blazer. Clark, meanwhile, opted for a green halterneck top and matching pants, before the pair both changed into sportswear for their role on the sidelines. Clark and Cunningham have grown ever-closer since the latter's arrival in Indiana during the offseason, with many labeling them 'besties' after various snaps of the pair together on and off the court. On Saturday night, the Fever didn't need two of their best players - or their coach - to seal a huge win over the rival Sky. Chicago put up a season-worst 52 points in the 79-52 scoreline, despite a bumper home crowd that had shown up for the game. Indiana guard Kelsey Mitchell led her team in scoring with 17 points, while Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard were both in double figures. Cunningham and Clark, meanwhile, are edging closer to a return from injury. The former is suffering from an ankle issue, while Clark is due back next week after her ankle problem.

NWSL roundup: Fast start sends Current past Gotham FC
June 8 - Temwa Chawinga and Michelle Cooper each racked up a goal and an assist to lift the Kansas City Current to a 2-1 win over host Gotham FC on Saturday in rainy Harrison, N.J. Cooper scored in the third minute and Chawinga doubled the Current's lead eight minutes later with her seventh goal of the season, tying Gotham's Esther Gonzalez and Orlando's Barbra Banda for the league lead. It marked the fourth straight win for Kansas City (9-2-0, 27 points) and the third consecutive loss for Gotham (3-5-3, 12 points). Lorena was moments away from her sixth clean sheet of the season, but amid a Gotham attack, Kansas City's Vanessa DiBernardo accidentally booted the ball into the back of her own net in the 11th minute of second-half stoppage time. Lorena made two saves, while Ann-Katrin Berger had three saves for Gotham. The Current forced a turnover by Gotham's back line early in the game. Chawinga picked up the ball and found Cooper in the box for an easy strike. On a fast break in the 11th, Cooper sent a low cross into the box and Chawinga reached the ball a split second before a diving Berger. Chawinga scored into the open net. Gotham FC thought they had a goal early in the second half when Emily Sonnett headed a corner kick into the net. But VAR showed that Sonnett got her advantage from a two-handed shove to a Current player's back, and it was overturned. U.S. women's national team midfielder Rose Lavelle, who had offseason ankle surgery, made her season debut for Gotham as a substitute in the 74th minute. Pride 1, Dash 0 Cori Dyke's first goal with Orlando broke a stalemate in the ninth minute of second-half stoppage time and delivered a victory over visiting Houston. Summer Yates' attempt on the run bounced off the leg of Dash goalkeeper Abby Smith and found Dyke near the far corner of the 18-yard box. Dyke's shot caromed off a Houston defender and bounced past Smith, who had seven saves. Anna Moorhouse made four saves for the Pride (7-3-1, 22 points), who have won two straight after a 1-2-1 stretch. Orlando outshot Houston (3-6-2, 11 points) 22-8 and had an 11-1 advantage in corner kicks. Bay 1, Thorns 0 Alyssa Malonson scored in the 39th minute and Jordan Silkowitz made five saves to help Bay FC shut out Portland in San Jose, Calif. Penelope Hocking put a touch pass into a wide part of the box for Malonson, who raced in and rocketed it into the top of the net. Silkowitz made a key stop on Olivia Moultrie's shot attempt in the 83rd minute to preserve the clean sheet for Bay FC (4-4-3, 15 points). The Thorns (4-3-4, 16 points) saw their five-match unbeaten streak come to an end. Bella Bixby made one save for Portland, which had a 16-10 advantage in shot attempts. --Field Level Media
