I was very much in favor of signing Owens because his antics have always been money driven and thought Jones would keep him happy financially. I was also in favor of the Johnson signing because his crimes weren't even crimes in most states.
I'm very much against signing Jones, however. What I wanted to hear was simple. I wanted him to state that he's found a mentor of some sort, be it a pastor, former teacher...whomever. Calvin Hill is great but he cannot and will not be his personal babysitter. I'd have also loved to hear that he'd been living and working out in some small town in Utah or Montana somewhere getting his life in order. Plus, I'd be willing to bet that his last foray into a "gentleman's club" happened within the last month.
He's going to find trouble again, I believe, and I don't want it to effect the Cowboys. People can talk about an easy to cut contract, incentives... but I'm afraid that doesn't solve all the problems with Jones on the team. Suppose for a second he slipped up at a crucial time like the Saturday night right before the Super Bowl.
