“We hope that comment was not inspired by these pages. In 2008, CT’s law clerks came from George Mason, Rutgers, George Washington, and Creighton law schools. If there were any ‘TTT’ references to them here, they were in the comments section and did not come from our ‘smart’ mouths, er, fingers.”
That seems so enlightened and egalitarian of you, ATL. Bravo!
“With all due respect to the good people at Case Western, Biglaw types have a hard time suspending their disbelief that even a fictional top law firm would grab an associate from the #55 ranked law school in the country.”
Oh yeah. I forgot, you guys are pompous dorks. Thanks for trying to play both sides though. You should ultimately pick one, and I would just go for the thoughtless snarkiness, as it is already in your wheelhouse.

78,
1. it is “Kool-aid” not cool-aid.
2. You did miss something: the point. Even where a SCOTUS justice intentionally deviates from the USNWR top-ranked schools on principle, he returns, tail between his legs, to where the actual talent is.
3. Tail between his legs? Yes. He actually hired from Yale, a school he despises, for the first time in years. It is his 5th in the last decade.
4. This is far more remarkable than the comments he makes at a law school on a given day.
5. You’d rather rely on dumb luck (ha!) than your wits? Keep buying those lottery tickets, chump.

39,
Maybe I missed something, but are your saying usnews is per se better at indicating professional status than a Supreme Court Justice?
I would rather graduate from Creighton and clerk for CT than graduate no. 1 from y-h-s without clerking for SCOTUS.
You would see there is no debate were you to lay off the ATL/TTT/FTW cool-aid.

He should've been wiped out with that whole sexual harassment scandal. No plea bargaining for thomas http://lawblog.legalmatch.com/2010/02/08/to-plea-or-not-to-plea-that-is-the-bargaining-question/

alright ATL, that does it:
fuck you
the blatant anti GW trolilng is getting out of control.
a couple of quick thoughts:
-GW median admit: 167 / 3.75 (only 15-17 schools nationwide have higher admit #ers)
-T18 by NLJ250 placement
-creighton, mason, rutgers (and notre dame, for that matter) do not compare. don’t ever lump us in with them again. you do, and you just may die in a horrible, horrible fire.
carry on!

Speaking of TTT, I think Dead Horse Media bought the template and servers for this website at K-Mart. Layout sucks and the site is sluggish.

Pretty epic that “TTT” has reached the Supreme Court. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to learn that CT posts on Autoadmit.

Guys in my high school used to call onside kicks to start the second half of the super bowl all the time.
