So long to Steve Spurrier: A legend, an innovator and a quitter. CBS Sports national college football writer Jon Solomon sings Steve Spurrier's praises but notes, despite all his successes, Spurrier is still going out by leaving a team in the middle of its season.
The confirmation hearing for the Supreme Court nominee, Judge Neil M. Gorsuch, is set for next week, and a sundry list of big issues is bound to be brought up. One involves an arcane legal doctrine known as Chevron deference, which many say will be crucial to the Trump administrationâs plans to tame the regulatory state.
Happily, the Supreme Court has been willing to cut back a bit on Chevron deference in recent years. The Christenson-Mead doctrine has held that the agencies are normally entitled to Chevron deference when exercising informal rulemaking and formal adjudication, but not when exercising many types of agency action. Unfortunately, this doctrine has introduced significant uncertainty into the law.
