With ceilings falling, stations flooding and subway rats counting on sloppy seconds, he said “we are turning the corner.” … Someone turned the corner, walked into the KC Mart in Simpsonville, S.C., and walked out with $1.6 billion.

Travel day. Red Sox and Dodgers head to the warmer climes of Southern California while we head to Houston for the NFL Thursday nighter. Resurgent Texans go in search of their fifth straight victory after starting the season 0-3. All-world defensive lineman J.J. Watt will be chasing the Dolphins Brock Osweiler instead of starter Ryan Tannehill, who will be sitting this one out with a bum shoulder. Money line shows the Texans to be strong favorites -320. We agree. Play 10 units on the Texans.

Home-ice advantage has the Sox up two games to none. Dodgers bats went cold with temps in the 40s. They managed three hits and lost 4-2 as David Price went six innings for the W. Hyun-Jin Ryu left after allowing all four runs in 4 ²/₃ innings. Latest win has us at -665 peskys.
