Louisville Slugger manufacturer ordered to pay $850,000 for not putting a warning label on their bat.

That pisses me off. How did they find 12 jurors who would think that's okay?

Oh! WAVE 3! I remember them from growing up in the area. (They're a Louisville TV station.)

If that pisses you off, you'll be infuriated to know that that's only for his lost earnings, pain, and suffering ($792,000), and for the family's pain, suffering, and damages ($58,000). "The judge is still considering punitive damages."
