@JaredStillman Very well said, Jared. I agree 100%. And this is coming from a Spurs fan of 45+ years who grew up just outside of San Antonio and loved the Spurs when they were awful.
@TradVat2 This bulldoze the Statute of Liberty thing is going to be a great hypo for next year's Con. Law I exam. Thanks for bringing it to the forefront with your comment about it.
@StephenESachs 1. I grew up in New Braunfels, TX, 14 miles from Seguin. 2. Peter Hay's Conflict of Laws exam at Emory Law was, by far, the hardest exam I've ever taken in my life, and the A- I'm proudest of in law school. Happy grading!
@Alex_DiPrima You might want to check out John Witte, Jr. and Thomas C. Arthur, "The Three Uses of the Law: A Protestant Source of the Purposes of Criminal Punishment," 10 J. of Law and Rel. no. 2 (1993). Might not be what you're looking for, but it will have an interesting historical take.
@titansfilmroom Kingsbury grew up in New Braunfels, TX (like me) and played for his HC father, Tim. The Unicorns’ (real name of the team) colors are royal blue, silver, and white. He’ll be fine.
@AndrewBrandt What counts for "suitable work"? A similar HC position or an assistant coach position? Contract theory, I think, would say that mitigation means the same level of position (HC to HC).
