A little - it’s an interesting 1A question, but seems like an odd case to grant certiorari to. My best guess is that the Sixth Circuit just got it wrong.

Does the Scotus have to rule if a circuit gets it wrong? Can’t they just tell them they got it wrong...do it over?

Here’s the short version:

Brentwood had voluntarily joined TSSAA and agreed to abide by its rules.

The Supreme Court said the TSSAA action did not violate free speech rights.

Duh.

Unfortunately the Supreme Court opinion is filled with bluster and is almost unreadable. Why can’t the court just issue an opinion without pontificating for pages on end?

It took the Supreme Court 19 pages to state the obvious.

What is really scarry is how this thing managed to get to the Supreme Court TWICE!
