I walked Levy Trail South this morning in 33:20. ...With $5.75 in my Oaklawn Sports pot, I bet $1 on the Phillies to win tonight (Thursday, Nov. 3). Last night, bettors reacted as if Philly could not lose, so the odds worked well for me, considering the Astros clearly started the best of two starters. So far today, everyone has loaded up on Justin Verlander, ignoring his subpar postseason starts. His ERA this fall is a bit over 7.20. The Philly starter Noah Syndergaard has an ERA this postseason of 1.69. My dollar will return something like $2.80. If the odds were even, I would take Verlander. Still, they are not. Besides, I would like to cheer for Philly at least once more this fall. ...Also, with the Powerball over $1 billion, I bought a $2 ticket today for the first time since Jan. 11, 2016. As before, I went with the jersey numbers of the Green Bay Packers top four leading career rushers and top three passers. Most of my friends know how well that paid off for me six and a half years ago.
