The Washington Nationals...Or not?

Without knowing a lot of the details, I have to applaud the the District of Columbia City Council for drawing the line at a $1 BILLION commitment to Major League Baseball in return for the right to host a major league ballclub. In a city as impoverished as our National Capital, spending this kind of money on a baseball team borders on immoral. For those of you who say, "Who cares! It's not my money", think again: Who do you think supplies the operating budget for D.C.? You do!
