When mooters go bad

Above the Law has an amusing post today about what sounds like the most fun advocacy contest in the country: University of Virgina School of Law's intraschool William Lile Minor Moot Court Competition.

The substance of the post is really rather silly; it's essentially a bunch of whining about how the 3Ls at UVA are taking their competition too seriously.

But what I really liked (and laughed out loud at) was the intro:

I’ll admit, I did not participate in any kind of fake court moot court competitions during law school. It just wasn’t my thing. But for other students, moot court can be a really exciting way to pass the time while you are waiting for law school to stop charging you money. I totally respect that.

I may adopt that as the official tag line of The Bench Brief: "A weblog dedicated to the wide world of really exciting ways to to pass the time while you are waiting for law school to stop charging you money."
