There's a few nicknames for St. Louis Cardinals slugger, Albert Pujols, including Prince Albert, Phat Albert, The Machine, El Hombre, and Darth Pujols (The last one is mine). I'd like everyone to stop calling Albert these names and begin referring to Al as "Big Poopie". It's a spinoff of David Ortiz's nickname "Big Papi" and Al's ubiquitous last name.
I read your comment before this post (i get email notifications of ALL comments made to unlikelymoose.com) and I thought you were talking about starting David Ortiz.
I can't believe you are starting Albert Pujols. That's just sick and wrong.
There's a facebook group called "Beat the Streak" started by a fan. You give $10 to the group, and if you win, you get the whole pot. The organizer says there's $250 in the pot right now. I'm curious how long it will take Facebook to shut this group down for gaambling. At any rate, yesterday I wrote on the group's wall asking what is the current longest in the group, and I have gotten no replies. Maybe I'll toss my hat into the ring and say I got 10 games in a row.
I dunno. It sounds like someone just wants to take $10 from you, spudart. I'm not so sure that you would get your winnings if you amassed the longest hit streak.
If someone in the group already has a 16-game streak, I'm not gonna give anyone $10. Forget that. I've never broken 13. I don't know if I can do 16 or 17.
