Kid Rock feels Waffle House justice

The court has finished hearing the case that grew out of Kid Rock's Waffle House fight in suburban Atlanta back in the autumn; three of the Rock entourage had charges dropped; two pleaded no contest and Kid Rock himself got probation, anger management courses (a little like sentencing a penguin to dancing lessons, surely) and community service. Still, at least he's contrite, right?

Ritchie's attorney, Darryl Cohen, said Tuesday that Ritchie was "not terribly unhappy" with the outcome although he believed he was not at fault.

"I think my client is satisfied," Cohen said. "He would have liked to have tried it. He came within a hairbreadth of going to trial."

Odd: if he wanted it to go to trial, why did he plead no contest?
