It probably shouldn't be considered a surprise that Bengals cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones was suspended by the NFL for one game Friday for his behavior in a January incident in Cincinnati involving the police, but the reaction of fans might rank as shocking.

Given Jones’ track record in a nine-year professional career where he has frequently wound up in headlines of a negative sort, some sort of action by the league office was expected by many.

Maybe fans thought it was coming, too, but that sure didn’t mean many were shocked to see the graduate of Atlanta’s Westlake High School go away.

Not everybody was so down.

Where do you come down on Pacman’s suspension?
