Roller Derby and Civil Procedure

Here's a new one.

A University of South Carolina law professor is teaching a class about the parallels between lawyering and roller derby.

I'm not sure what to make of this. The seminar will have course credit attached to it, but it seems more like a really clever way to get people to watch roller derby and relate it to something they know. It also kind of seems like a Mickey Mouse course.

Not that I'm complaining by any means. I'm smiling as I write this, but it's a sly, "stealing from the cookie jar" kind of smile... Maybe I should have been a lawyer.

Anyway, I'll just choose to take this as further proof that roller derby is conquering the world.
