How long will Kenny Lofton's streak last

Carlton · 05-28-2003, 12:47 PM

ripping off asamford, because I suck

sporr · 05-28-2003, 01:22 PM

I'll say 30-35 again. Even if it's shorter, I'll still say it.

Gastric ReFlux · 05-28-2003, 01:29 PM

Wow, a lot think he's going to beat DiMaggio.

Pretty scientific poll, eh?

twins15 · 05-28-2003, 01:32 PM

Well he has the quick hands, and good intangibles.

Gastric ReFlux · 05-28-2003, 01:37 PM

This makes scientific look positively superstitious.

CMH · 05-28-2003, 02:32 PM

Loftons eya hand cordination is better than Garciaparra's.

So I predict he'll hit over 30. If not, he'll probably end up bustin someone's ear with his hand.

Eckstein 4 Prez · 05-28-2003, 02:42 PM

See my comments in the Nomar thread. I said 28-30.

LivnLegend · 05-28-2003, 03:09 PM

The fact that the choice of "56 or more" has as many votes as all other choices combined really lends to the theory that all Internet Polls are as worthless as World Series ticket reservations at Wrigley Field.

Gastric ReFlux · 05-28-2003, 03:14 PM

yeah, it should be doing better than that. Lofton is a man of destiny, it's obvious. I just checked his astrological chart.

Eckstein 4 Prez · 05-28-2003, 03:22 PM

Thank God there's so many idiots in the world. Otherwise I'd have nothing to laugh at.

Gastric ReFlux · 05-28-2003, 03:25 PM

Dude, just check out his biorhythms. Lofton is all primed.

Eckstein 4 Prez · 05-28-2003, 03:49 PM

Oh yeah. And I forgot - the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter's aligned with Mars.

Gastric ReFlux · 05-28-2003, 03:50 PM

Later, I plan on doing a reading of chicken guts.

scoobz0202 · 05-28-2003, 04:00 PM

I said 28-30. First it was Nomar that had it all and was going to do it. Now Kenny.. nuh uh.

and there's a ring around Uranus.

Anywho, I am done with polls simply because yous guys are dumbasses.

Lofton 56 game hitting streak...ugh

BleacherBum · 05-29-2003, 02:57 AM

How do you like that, he took today off...

"Lofton said he could use a breather, not so much because he was hurting physically but he was exhausted mentally."

Now the Pirates have a scheduled off day tomorrow. Seems more likely he didn't want to face Mark Prior today.

I vote the streak ends in St. Louis this weekend.

twins15 · 05-29-2003, 03:01 AM

It doesn't matter if Walter Johnson was on the mound, Lofton's hand-eye coordination is so good he would have got a hit off anyway today if hew were not so mentally exhausted.

AngelinOF · 05-29-2003, 04:06 AM

I was kinda surprised that he is just 2 games away from tying the Pirates club record throughout history the Pirates have had some really good hitters, so I would of figured that their club record was higher than 27 games
