This is backdated to before my post about the Veterans Committee skyrocketed, so here goes. As is usual, not all items were posted in November. This is just the ones that were the most popular in the past 30 days. That said, this month's overview is sports-heavy.
No. 1, in fact, was from 10 years ago, but is still relevant today, although Xi Jinping Thought surely has less angst about strongarming Google today than back then, while Google, and Western companies in general, media, Internet, or others, have generally shown less compunction about kowtowing to Beijing.
No. 2? Further debate about just how special (or not) Shohei Ohtani's season was. Related? No. 4 was from October, about how Ohtani is still not Babe Ruth.
No 3 and still trending from October? The St. Louis Cardinals' dastardly firing of Mike Shildt. Related? No. 10, my postmortem on the Birds' 2021.
No. 5? It's a link in the middle of my disclaimer on the right hand rail, snarking on Marcy Wheeler, aka Emptywheel. I guess that, as some hot blog posts trend, especially on political news, it draws attention. And, it's as relevant as ever, as #BlueAnon like her largely fellate #StatusQuoJoe on foreign policy.
No. 6? As Omicron puts COVID issues back in the headlines, and COVID obstructionists as well, my summer piece about just what happened to John Ioannidis started trending.
No. 8? Hall of Fame related thoughts on the retirement of Buster Posey, tied to Yadier Molina.
No. 9? With lab meat big news last month, and plant burgers along with that, I retweeted an old story about how Impossible Burger et al aren't all that healthy.
