2:30 left, timeout on the field BC facing a really big 2nd and medium from the Edmonton 7... GOTTA get this TD on this next play... no choice, as a failed play will force the Lions to kick to put them up 9 points, meaning a missed FG for a safety would be our only chance.
They screwed it up... my worst nightmare in this game appears to be happening, even though the last couple minutes goes by really slowly... but they missed the FG! 26-19 Lions, and a TD can put us into OT, which would be HUGE for me
Whoops... hit the crossbar... so no point and I'm totally screwed... 25-19 Lions still

That answers that question...
Only thing in question is whether or not the Lions hang onto this one, a game I don't believe they deserve to win. Edmonton is the better holistic team with Printers in... with Dickenson it might be a different case, but Edmonton played a better "game" than BC did in my opinion

Edmonton (+9)/Over 26.5 1st half L (-1 unit)
BC over 31 L (-1.57 units)
BC over 15.5 1st half W (+1 unit)
Edmonton/BC over 55 L (-3 units)**
Edmonton (+3) @ BC 1st half L (-1.10 units)
Note that I'm going to count the game over 55 as a loss instead of a 1-1 mark since I bought back a unit. The holistic result of that bet was losing 3 units. That brought me to 1-4 on the night in horrible fashion, losing 5.67 units... It was bound to happen at some point to me on one of these games, but hopefully tomorrow night with Calgary I can get some, if not all of that back. This is a play that gets a massive * next to it in my records, as it was impossible to know before these bets were placed that Printers was starting... absolute bad luck that I know comes with the territory of betting at times. Just a matter of recouping for tomorrow and later weeks, taking lumps, and moving on.

Here's what I'm working with for tonight's matchup...
Stamps (-4) vs. Winnepeg (3 units -104)
Stamps (-3) 1st half (0.5 units -115)
Stamps (ml) 1st half (1 unit -166)
Stamps (-1) 1st quarter (1 unit -108)
Probably going to take to the side of caution and not put any more on this game after last night's debacle. As I said last week, I need to begin limiting plays now that I've got the hang of this a bit better, and though I still believe if healthy I'm on the right side of that wager, that's too many units to drop on a night for me. Here's my recap thus far...
Montreal (-4) vs. Saskatchewan W (+2 units)
Montreal (-2) vs. Saskatchewan 1st half W (+1.5 units)
Saskatchewan under 14 1st half W (+1 unit)
Saskatchewan under 28 W (+1 unit)
Saskatchewan @ Montreal over 28 2nd half W (+1 unit)
Edmonton (+9)/Over 26.5 1st half L (-1 unit)

Under the "high scoring game must be coming eventually this week" logic, you're probably right Scott... however, I think we're gonna see a good ol' fashion butt-whipping tonight and that the Bombers are gonna struggle to score... but I've been massively wrong before, and as long as the Stamps win at all intervals by given numbers, I could care less if the Bombers score 60 themselves... best of luck
