Who Wants to Be a Justice? Robe Not Required, But May Get You Extra Points

I know you've been reading this blog, seeing the updates on the Supreme Court, and I bet you think you know which way they're going to decide the big cases. Well, now you've got your chance. Josh Blackman has launched FantasyScotus.net. As he explains:

I am, unashamedly a big Supreme Court nerd. I follow all the cases closely, I read about the Justices, and I attend Oral Arguments whenever I can. A Supreme Court Fantasy League is exactly the kind of Web Site a SCOTUS fan like me would love. And I know there are more people out there like me.

This Fantasy League allows you to compete against your friends, colleagues, and adversaries to determine who has the greatest ability to predict the outcome of Supreme Court cases.

Josh says that:

The Rules are simple. For each case the Supreme Court grants cert, predict:

-The Outcome of the Case (Affirm or Reverse the lower Court)
-The Split (9-0, 8-1, 7-2, 6-3, 5-4, 4-1-4, or fragmented)
- The Justices in the Majority, and the Justices in the Dissent

At the end of the Term, the Associate Justice who predicts the most cases correctly will be confirmed as the Chief Justice of the Fantasy Supreme Court League, and win a to-be-determined prize.

 

Check it you, maybe you've got what it takes to be named Chief Justice.
