He just can’t help himself. I guess when a law professor’s claim to fame isn’t that he’s a widely-respected academic known for his profound insights and contributions to the teaching of jurisprudence (like say, Lawrence Lessig), but is instead known for his highly trafficked and self-servingly controversial web site (where he very rarely pontificates on issues of law anymore), it’s going to lead to pathetic, attention-craving behavior.
