Let's go @uofdenver.bsky.social men's hockey!!!
Fanatics?
Fake news?!?
The Twins got saves from 4 different pitchers over the last 4 days-Laweryson, Topa, Funderburk, and Orze. Has that ever happened before @slangsonsports.bsky.social ?
Don’t know if anyone has already posted this, but the Twins got saves from 4 different pitchers over the last 4 days-Laweryson, Topa, Funderburk, and Orze (which are clearly made up names😂)! @dvr.bsky.social @enosarris.bsky.social
Thx!
In my home league, I spent a lot for Tatis & Chisholm. Tatis is hitting ball hard (xwOBA .345) but has .276 BABIP, so maybe some bad luck. Chisholm's more worrying w/ xwOBA of .221 & a .296 BABIP. Small samp sizes but any thoughts? @enosarris.bsky.social @dvr.bsky.social @chadyoung.bsky.social
Congratulations to Jose Ramirez, who now holds the record for the most games played by a Cleveland baseball player in franchise history!! 🐐👏👏👏⚾️ #Guardians
Consecutive series wins against the Dodgers and Cubs. Go Guards!! #Guardians
You realize these people have such a limited career window that an injury for a couple of months would be the equivalent of the rest of us losing a several years in the workplace.
Chase DeLauter with his 5th HR on the young season puts the Guardians up 4-1 on the Cubs!! #Guardians
Congrats on the article, Bailey!!
FACTUAL IMMUNITY Bailey D. Barnes 111 MINNESOTA LAW REVIEW — (forthcoming 2026) ABSTRACT Qualified immunity protects government agents from suit and liability unless they deprive another of a clearly established right. This Article argues that constitutional tort litigation is also affected by a supplemental barrier for plaintiffs seeking relief: factual immunity. By making inherent credibility determinations and subtly weighing evidence in favor of government defendants on summary judgment, courts are protecting officials from trial despite the presence of genuine disputes of material fact in the record. Relying on close analysis of recent appellate decisions, this Article shows how some judges credit officers' testimony, discount plaintiffs' evidence, and regard evidentiary ambiguities as reasons to grant, rather than deny, qualified immunity on summary judgment. Unlike qualified immunity, factual immunity is not grounded in the common law. It is a distortion of the summary judgment standard that reallocates fact-finding responsibility from juries to judges, depriving plaintiffs of accountability and weakening the constitutional tort system. This Article makes three core contributions. First, it names and theorizes factual immunity, identifying how courts convert factual doubt into deference to defendants. Second, it acknowledges the institutional pressures that incentivize its use, including the Supreme Court's one-sided qualified immunity signaling and misapplications of Scott u. Harris's blatant contradiction exception. Lastly, it describes how factual immunity magnifies the harms of qualified immunity by stunting constitutional development, undermining deterrence, and denying injured plaintiffs their constitutional right to a jury. This Article concludes with proposals to restore the boundary between law and fact in constitutional tort litigation. Qualified immunity may be here to stay; factual immunity should not.
My article, Factual Immunity, is forthcoming in the Minnesota Law Review. I argue that, alongside qualified immunity, some courts in constitutional tort suits employ what I call factual immunity by crediting officer testimony & discounting plaintiffs’ stories at summary judgment when QI is raised.
No credit to Gavin Williams??
Huge early season series win for the Guardians on the road against the Dodgers!!
