One hippo all alone
Calls two hippos on the phone
Three hippos at the door
Bring along another four
Five hippos come overdressed
Six hippos show up with a guest
Seven hippos arrive in a sack
Eight hippos sneak in the back
Nine hippos come to work
ALL THE HIPPOS GO BERSERK!!!

All through the hippo night
Hippos play with great delight
But at the hippo break of day
The hippos all must go away
Nine hippos and a beast
Join eight hippos riding east
Seven hippos headed west
Leave six hippos quite distressed
Five hippos then set forth
With four hippos headed north
Three hippos say "Good day!"
The last two hippos go their way
One hippo, alone once more,
Misses the other forty-four

I'm still trying to do all the math. Okay, carry the four...

Maybe they just decided to turn it around tonight. I think a lot of their 10-game losing streak was the product of fatigue, though. They didn't have any days off for 11 days or something like that entering the Braves' series, had a 19-inning game, another game in extras, then had to play the Phillies. They were probably just gassed by the time they came home.

Maybe getting out to San Francisco feels like a vacation, and they're relaxing, but they seriously need a day off. The schedule makers have not been kind to the Pirates.

It's because it's BASEBALL!

The best team wins 100 games. The worst team wins 60. And while over the course of a season teams show you who they are, any team can win on any given night when the right combo of 25% and 30% chances at the plate show up at the same time.

Yeah, but it's weird that they picked now to snap the streak. It's also weird to see 7 games of a 10-game losing streak come against awful teams.

I saw the Pirates collapse forthcoming, similar to the dot com bubble burst. They were playing over their heads and couldn't maintain that level for too much longer.

Alright, let's knock off the sentimental crap around here. Makin' me sick.

Fuck you, Ritari!
