: Fight The HypoSCOTUS Fantasy League
By Casebook Sherpa
For all you law dorks who also love to gamble, there’s this. (Ahem, Dr. Bombay.)
From the WSJ Law Blog:
The idea behind the site, which is the brainchild of recent George Mason law grad Josh Blackman, is simple: you pick the way you think the Supreme Court will rule on its docket. You?re awarded points for picking the outcome of the case (whether the court affirms or reverses the lower court); the split (9-0, 8-1, 7-2, 6-3, 5-4, 4-1-4, or fragmented); as well as the justices in the majority and the justices in the dissent. It?s $5 or $10 to join, but the fee is waived for students, law clerks and unemployed attorneys.
At the end of the term, all the points accumulated will be tallied, and a winner decreed.
