    导出博客文章CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Bengals cornerback Adam (Pacman) Jones pleaded not guilty Tuesday to an assault charge after police say he hit a woman at a nightclub last week, the latest in a string of legal troubles hes had. An lawyer for Jones, 29, entered the plea a day after he was arrested and then released on his own recognizance. He attended the start of the Bengals training camp Tuesday and worked out with the team in the afternoon, but declined to comment. Jones is accused of hitting a 34-year-old woman at a downtown Cincinnati nightclub Wednesday shortly before midnight. A police report lists the injury as apparently minor. Jones attorney, Edward Perry, declined to comment. "The situation Adam Jones is in obviously is not something you want to get involved in," coach Marvin Lewis said. "Its unfortunate that hes in this situation. Thats really about all I can add to it." Surveillance video of altercation, obtained by a local radio station and verified as authentic by Cincinnati police, appears to show Jones approaching two seated women outside the club. Then, a third woman approaches Jones and appears to confront him. The grainy video shows the woman reach toward Jones face but its unclear what she does or whether shes holding anything in her hand. Jones then appears to hit the woman, who falls to the ground but quickly gets up and follows Jones off-camera as another man with him ushers him away. The woman in the video, identified by police as 34-year-old Shannon Wesley, did not return a call for comment. Jones could be punished by the National Football League under its conduct policy. Spokesman Greg Aiello said the league would review the latest arrest when appropriate. Jones wasnt suspended for an arrest in July 2011, when he was accused of being disorderly, shouting profanities and trying to pull away as officers arrested him at a bar in downtown Cincinnati. As part of an agreement to settle that case, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour count of disorderly conduct in Hamilton County Municipal Court and was sentenced to one year of probation and 50 hours of community service. Hed stayed out of trouble until his latest arrest. Last year, he was ordered to pay $11 million in damages to two Las Vegas strip club employees injured in 2007 when a gunman claiming he was doing Jones bidding opened fire outside the club after Jones and his entourage were kicked out. A club manager was paralyzed from the waist down and a bouncer was wounded. Jones said he had no role in the shooting and pleaded an equivalent of no contest to misdemeanour conspiracy to commit disorderly conduct. The gunman, Arvin Kenti Edwards, is serving four to 10 years in prison. Jones got into a lot of trouble early in his career. The cornerback was the sixth overall pick in 2005 but repeatedly had off-field issues with Tennessee, resulting in suspensions. He missed the entire 2007 season on suspension and sat out the 2009 season when no team was interested. The Bengals gave him another chance and he has taken advantage of it, developing into their third cornerback and punt returner. Instead of being a distraction, hes blended into one of the leagues top defences. Cincinnati finished sixth last season in yards allowed. Hes also become close to some of the other defensive players. "I didnt know much about him before, but hes been one of my best friends since a little while after he got here," cornerback Leon Hall said. "We kind of meshed. We live not too far from each other. We dont have the same personality, but weve clicked pretty well. Hes been a pleasure for me ever since he came out here." Joel Iyiegbuniwe Jersey .

"Were just throwing s--- at the wall hoping something sticks," said Tortorella about the possible line combinations for Fridays game against Columbus. The Canucks have lost five straight games and six of their last seven, leaving them in a logjam in the Pacific Division, currently sitting fifth - good for ninth in the Western Conference.

AMES, Iowa -- Establishing the run has been something Iowa State has wanted to accomplish all season.The Cyclones finally found their ground game in last weeks win at Kansas and theyre hoping that blueprint can help them finish yet another lost season on a high note.Iowa State (2-8, 1-6 Big 12) rushed for 238 yards on 46 carries in a 31-24 victory over the Jayhawks that snapped a five-game losing skid. True freshman David Montgomery led the way with a career-high, 169-yard effort that earned him Big 12 newcomer of the week honors.Montgomery and the Cyclones host Texas Tech (4-6, 2-5) Saturday as part of a two-game home stand to close out 2016.A lot of what David has done is a credit to his process and his work ethic. I really appreciate his detail and maturity, Iowa State coach Matt Campbell said. Hes really worked hard at studying the game on film and being locked in.Despite a makeshift offensive line, Iowa State thought it had a chance to be a decent running team because it had Mike Warren, the nations leading freshman running back in 2015.But with Warren struggling with an ankle injury, Montgomery stepped in and gave the Cyclones a welcome boost.Montgomery, a Cincinnati native who rushed for 41 touchdowns on 10.1 yards per carry as a high school senior a year ago, was one of the most promising players in Campbells first recruiting class. Campbell immediately saw Montgomerys speed as an asset for a program with needs across the board.Montgomery averaged at least four yards per carry in each of his first seven Big 12 games. He is at 5.1 yards per carry overall, despite not getting much of a chance to develop the rhythm that comes with extendeed playing time.ddddddddddddThe promise Montgomery showed in a 34-24 loss to No. 8 Oklahoma two weeks ago came to fruition against the Jayhawks. He averaged seven yards a carry as Iowa State scored 28 of the games final 38 points.At some point you go with the hot hand too. And he had the hot hand, Campbell said. The tenacity that he was running with on Saturday led us to say that we really (keep) giving the ball to the guy whos really running well.But the most surprising development in Iowa States rushing attack has been the rise of walk-on Mitchell Harger.Harger, a redshirt senior from Alburnett, Iowa, a town of less than 1,000 people, spent his first three years with the Cyclones as a special teams player. His only notable moment came last year at West Virginia, when he converted a fake punt.But with Iowa State trailing Kansas 24-16, Campbell gave Harger a chance as a lead back for one series.Harger ran the ball eight times out of nine plays, driving Iowa State down the field before scoring from six yards out on third-and-goal.Harger might not play much more this season as Warren gets healthier and Montgomery continues to improve. But Hargers work ethic and attitude have rubbed off on a team still learning what it takes to win consistently.He comes in here every single day and he hasnt complained once, wide receiver Allen Lazard said. Hes always worked extremely hard. Hes just happy to be here. It just makes me appreciate my life because I am a scholarship guy.---More college football at www.collegefootball.ap.org Cheap Soccer Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Hockey Jerseys Nike NFL Jerseys China Cheap Nike MLB Jerseys China Wholesale Baseball Jerseys China Wholesale College Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Jerseys Near Me Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap NCAA Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic MLB Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Throwback Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China ' ' '
