Non-Sequiturs

Non-Sequiturs: 01.27.15

* Dumb person suing the NFL over its entirely correct (though the rule is pretty stupid) no-catch call in the Cowboys/Packers game. For $88 billion. Oh, because Dez is number 88. I get it. To read the whole hand-written complaint, head to the next page.... [Sports Illustrated] * The feds charge a bumbling Russian bank employee with trying to spy on America. Viewed in light of the details of the Anna Chapman ring, I think maybe Russia should just give up trying to spy. [Huffington Post] * "Judge Feels That Chris Brown's Tour Doesn't Count as Community Service." Well then. [Defamer] * More of how the LSAT is supremely important to getting into law school. [Law and More] * College suspends a student for selling video of a campus brawl. School says the sale was a code of conduct violation... though it can't explain how. [Chronicle of Higher Education] * The government's brief in King v. Burwell tries desperately to show that conservatives themselves understood the plain meaning of the Affordable Care Act and anticipated states opting out of creating exchanges. Thankfully, the conservative justices obliged by writing exactly that in their NFIB v. Sebelius dissent. Between this and the marriage equality cases, Justice Scalia is just getting torched by his own dissents. [Talking Points Memo] https://www.scribd.com/doc/253504322/Terry-Hendrix-NFL-Lawsuit
