Two things.

First, while I'm very excited about the return of baseball to DC, I don't understand why the city council has to pay for it and why Major League Baseball has to bribe the District into it--- and pretend that it's good for small businesses. Also, the team should have been called The Senators again, not The Nationals.

Second, let's discuss Scott Peterson. While I know very little about the man or the case, I looked through reports yesterday of the evidence and testimony leading to his conviction. So it obviously left me wondering how somebody can be sentenced to the death penalty for a conviction based entirely on circumstantial evidence. You can apparently also get executed for "not showing emotion" during the penalty phase.

I'm sorry, but our criminal justice system is sick.
