Why does a hot streak end, if it is a not just random, but an actual thing? That was the question.....if something causes you to be hot, and keeps you hot (i.e., is a streak, not random), why would it ever end? That was the root question, I believe. Like, Baltimore won a boatload of 1 run games, and their fans claimed it was a skill. Then it stopped happening, even with pretty much the same players and coaches....was it random? A streak? A skill?
