Williams: New Nats lease by Friday

Looks like we're headed for another one of those fun all-day D.C. council hearings: Washington Mayor Anthony Williams has promised he'll submit a new Nationals lease proposal by this Friday, so the council can vote at its next meeting on February 7. "In order to have it done in the time we need it done, we need to have it in by Friday," Williams told AP yesterday. "And then we're going to continue to work on the votes." Because that worked so well last time.
