Argle-bargle.

Yes, the idea of a statistical turn is gobbledegook. That's what I'm saying. Statistics are good. They're useful. You can determine when an event is statistically due, historically speaking but you sure as hell can't use statistics to predict events.

Oh, I get it now. You were saying that it's not that it's statistically his turn to swing his bat. Sorry, gotcha, I dig.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Right. Hot and cold exist. Streaks happen. But they exist because of factors. There are causes, not just the fulfillment of a statistical likelihood.
