Sixers win!!! (Plus, recap of oral argument in Young v. UPS)

I had planned to blog today about yesterday’s oral argument before the Supreme Court in Young v. UPS, the case about when an employer must accommodate a pregnant employee.

But…

The Philadelphia 76ers stole the spotlight — and my evening — with their first win of the season, an 85-77 victory over the Minneapolis Timberwolves, whose team colors of white, blue, and black have officially been replaced with shame, ignominy, and more shame.

I guess those Sixers will get paid sick leave in 2015 after all. Congratulations to the 1-17 Sixers!
