This is the kind of cogent, yet minimalist, approach that even a tool like Milner Ball could have appreciated. It certainly makes much more sense than any Vaughn Ball lecture ever recorded, and it’s more entertaining than any Mike Wells lecture.
Well played, sir.

True, it is very good. It is cogent and minimalist, tangy but tart. It is far and away better than the either of the two Balls, either singularly rolled together or separately.
The timing and layout can only remind one of the the dazzling blackboard work displayed so frequently by Perry Sentell and his stand-up demand that if you are late for his 0800 Torts performance soliloquies and enhanced interrogation sessions, do not seek the treasure through the side backdoor of the room because you’ll regret it if you do and it will be something you’ll remember for the rest of your life as you think you know it. Just as you will the Senator’s article.
The habeus corpusedness of the sports celeb stars mentioned therein would make Donnie Wilkes proud that he chose to be a sometime capital offense defense attorney.

My experience with Vaughan was that he was whimsically brilliant. Example: “When we say that a defendant is entitled to a fair trial, we mean that in the context of good, fair, poor.” A ‘C’ is a passing grade in the law.
