This is a long, but to my mind interesting and accurate appraisal of a possible endgame. Spoilers does not end in total nuclear distruction https://samf.substack.com/p/giving-peace-a-chance?s=r&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email

Not sure I completely agree. I think the redline has always been attacking a NATO country, and thats why Putin has gone through with this invasion. I also think he has probably been surprised by the resistance of Ukraine, the uselessness of his groundforce and the swiftness and severity of sanctions. So in a way I think it make him less likely to try and expand further

You know you've gone too far when Rents is telling me to calm down And relax..... Fuck all I can do about it anyway

There's no such thing as European NATO going it alone, the whole point of NATO is one in all in, if that breaks Putin has already won. On top of that NATO has an overwhelming advantage in conventional warfare, Russia would immediately have only one retaliatory option

I don't know if there is anyone who would be able to stop him, and lets be honest once a nuke goes off all bets are off. Either we respond in kind and it all goes off, or we don't and there's nothing to stop him

Personally I think the West should be doing everything we can to avoid nuclear war, and a desperate Putin with his finger on the nuclear button terrifies me. I've got no good answers by the way, I don't think there are any

Who is likely to wield the icepick, and who do you think follows him into power?
-
I dont think he is going to win, but i dont see how he accepts losing What does a Putin loss look like?

My worry, well one of many, is that sanctions that make the populace poorer usually make autocrats/dictators stronger. It makes it easier to portray the West as the enemy. The only end I can see to this is Putin winning, or being able to claim a win, or an escalation which would seem to lead to nuclear war. Callous aa it sounds, Ukraine being overrun quickly and a puppet regine being installed would have lead to the least death, and the earliest "peace" At the minute with the West rushing to arm Ukraine it looks like at best its going to be a long drawn out struggle with untold thousands dead The only people benefitting from this war at the moment are the arms manufacturers and the oil/gas producers. Same as it ever was

So there's loads less testing going on, so cases probably being undercounted. Shall we check the official figures... seems like not good news

New centrre half,(Botman looking nailed on) up and coming midfielder and a new number 9 and 10. Wilson is made of paper and much as i like Wood he ain't no prolific goalscorer

The F1 2022, MotoGP and Other Sports That Go Vroom-Vroom Thread

This article seems to be saying the engines are sealed for the season. Hope I'm wrong https://www.motorsport.com/motogp/news/yamaha-shares-quartararos-motogp-engine-frustration/7956333/ As per MotoGP's technical regulations, all manufacturers not running with concessions will have their engines homologated by the FIM and sealed for the first round of the season. As a result, engine development will be frozen for the entirety of the campaign. With MotoGP's final pre-season test taking place this weekend, Yamaha would only be able to bring an updated engine to Qatar prior to its homologation, and Quartararo has ruled out running anything he hasn't been able to test. -

Urgh. Yamaha looking horribly off the pace in the MotoGP. Hope I'm wrong because there is no engine development this season -
