If Jones isn’t suspended by the NFL and is available or on injured reserve for all 16 games this season, the Titans get a sixth-round pick from the Cowboys in the 2009 draft. If Jones is suspended again, the Cowboys get a fifth-rounder from the Titans. The Cowboys said they would not take disciplinary action against Jones.
The bailout proposal before Congress seems to have been rejected because legislators were worried that voters back home saw it as a bailout of Wall Street at the expense of Main Street. Is such a fear rational? It may be that voters simply don’t understand or believe that a broader Wall Street failure could quickly trickle down and harm their Main Street interests. Or could it be that they’re willing to pay a price to exhibit their disgust even it if ultimately harms their self interest?
It is a measure of how little trust remains in both Washington and Wall Street that voters are willing to risk a serious hit to their wealth and income rather than follow their lead.
![With a 30-17 win over the Vikings, the Titans improved to 4-0 for the first time in the 49-year history of the franchise. Two previous Oilers/Titans teams managed to win their first three only to lose the fourth. [via: The Tennessean]](http://media.tumblr.com/qvypEGxVCegn44bfkLKSRKA9o1_500.jpg)
