So here at the treatment plant there is a 2 acre effluent pond. I was out this morning spaying weed killer around the edge of the pond and there is this head sticking out of the water. So I go grab my net and go back to try and save what I assumed was a dog. We have several different size nets for various size dogs that fall into the pond and sometimes even have to go out in the boat to save them. It’s a lined pond with steep side so once they fall in they are at the mercy of me spotting them in time. Anyway, I go to catch this puppy in my net and it ATTACKS violently. Not uncommon because they sometimes have been in the pond for hours and are terrified. I try again and this time I realize this is no puppy. Turns out it was a full grown Florida Red Fox. The fox was a first for me. I did save an owl one time, never did figure out how an owl got trapped in the pond in the first place. Oh, on a side note, if you ever happen to save an owl on Thanksgiving Day when the vets are closed, DON’T KEEP HIM IN YOUR OFFICE OVER NIGHT!
So back to the fox, he’s alive and well and probably out looking for some farmers chickens as I post this. He did give me a thought though. Maybe he was a sign of some sort. I have been on a seriously bad (understatement I’m 1-17 since early April) run late. Maybe the fox could change my luck. I was gonna just sit it out till football season but I think I will try this tonight.
Since it was a red fox I looked through the starting pitchers for tonight’s games to see if any of them had something fox related in their names but no luck. However two of the starters tonight did have red goatees. So that’s the sign and here are the plays.
Aaron Cook and the Rockies +136
Aaron Harang and the Reds +105.
See what happens when you start looking for SIGNS.
Red Fox led to red goatees which just so happened to belong to two guys named Aaron both playing for team who start with the letter “R”.
