Professor Bainbridge is cranky that the University of Chicago Law Review...

...asked him to referee an article.  While I agree that they should have given him a bigger window of opportunity in which to do it, I find the rest of his crank a bit puzzling.   (Professor Bainbridge needs to drink some more of the fine wines he often recommends!)  It's actually a welcome development that law reviews are increasingly seeking review of scholarly work by experts in the fields involved, and I would have thought peer review of scholarship one of the standard professional obligations a faculty member must discharge periodically.  Professor Bainbridge should 'step up to the plate'!
