Top blogging for January

Between current and older posts, it was a baseball-heavy month as far as the most popular posts last month.

Tops? My hot take on Red Sox CEO Sam Kennedy using David Ortiz's induction into Cooperstown to make Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski into nonpersons.

Second? My scolding of a subset of the so-called Best Fans in Baseball™ for opening themselves to mockery by seriously thinking the Cardinals should sign Albert Pujols.

Third? My carefully showing that, even when just limited to this century, Shohei Ohtani's 2021 was nice but not all that.

Fourth? My callout of Jon Lester retirement fellation, especially when seemingly driven by Cubs homerism.

Fifth? My analysis of how blogsite Cooperstown Cred is as bad as Red Satan ESPN on a "Big Hall" mentality for the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Sixth? From last month, explaining why, in detail, Gil Hodges isn't really a Hall of Famer.

Seventh, and we're out of baseball. I take the antivaxxers to task for their Nuremberg Code bullshit.

Eighth, my deep dive on bipartisan bullshit on the border in Tex-ass, along with the accumulating troubles of Kenny Boy Paxton.

Ninth? Similar to No. 6, explaining why, in detail, Tony Oliva isn't really a HOFer.

Tenth? Challenging liberals, and fellow leftists, to talk honestly about how they're going to juice up 100 million electric cars in the future without nuclear power.
