Anyone expecting anything interesting or novel to come from Sotomayor's nomination hearings is probably still waiting for Godot.
Therefore, we must turn to our imagination, and so I must absolutely share this piece for McSweeney's written by BU Law's very own Professor Wexler. It imagines the confirmation hearings as if they had been held in front of the 1977 KC Royals, not the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Perhaps the best moment is when George Brett asks if it would be appropriate to waterboard umpire Tim McClelland. But I'm going to go ahead and award the MVP to Hal McRae for his seething rage and violent outbursts.
Well played.
