Top blogging of February — Ukraine, Greens, sports

My top piece for February was my overview piece about the history, or non-history in some ways, of Ukraine, Ukraine-Russia relations and more. No. 3 was my connected piece about Ukraine's violation of the Minsk Agreements and related matters. You won't see stuff like that in the mainstream media.

Then, once Putin pivoted from a limited invasion (if that ever was his plan), at No. 6 is my piece about "it" being on, but what is "it"? At No. 9, then, were my musings about what is surely a shifting target, the end game of how this might play out.

No. 2? Takes on new meaning with the MLB season being officially delayed. Pitchers and catchers, including the Cardinals' Adam Wainwright and Yadier Molina, WON'T be reporting any time soon, contra my wondering.

To skip a post but stay on a semi-theme, sports and politics intersected at No. 5. Spike Lee announced a new ESPN piece about Colin Kaepernick. I posted that I expected Spike would whitewash Kaep peddling Xi Jinping Thought Kool-Aid (by silence) over the Uyghurs.

Back to No. 4. That would be my hot take on Green Party flunky Dave Schwab gloating about the implosion of Movement for a People's Party without looking at the number of Greens who are similar conspiracy theorists on vaccines (or Jan. 6). No. 10 had been written not too long before that, and talked explicitly about many Greens' nuttery on this issues; let's note (including for Brains) that nuttery on the former would seem to include Texas Greens' presumed gubernatorial nominee.

Speaking of? No. 7 was my thoughts on likely politicization of Fauci talking about "endemic COVID."

No. 8? I mocked Sprouts for calling bread a "plant-based food."
