![Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes." When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty-to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy [sic].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kok4aqdr3qnsj6ktfkq76kqz/bafkreibv56orcjfhjc2czd5kkydlzapnuem3xkzbhna4fia27pyajprzvq@jpeg)

Keegan had 1 (BR) WAR in 64 games, I wouldn't put it past Helsley to put up around 1.5 to 2 WAR in 50 or so games with some better pitch selection and coaching. (The last part is admittedly a wild card).

I actually find that the best way to speak to a jury of everyday citizens is to show the common sense elements of my client's case. HR or corporate speak has nothing to do with my work.
