We were just walking out to get in the car and drive to Bingham High School to watch Cortney's ball game.  The phone rang and it was Russ telling us that the game time was actually 6:50 p.m. instead of 6:00 p.m.  So now we had time for dinner.  I had told Sheila that I would wait on dinner for the 6 o'clock game, but now I couldn't wait that long and now we had time if we hurried.  Sheilas pulled her magic and got a nice tasty meal ready just in time for us to hurry and eat and then hurry over to the game, which started about 5 minutes late so we were in time.  I was surprised that we were Cortney's only family fans there.  The bleachers soon became too hard for me and I got down on the court and walked and down the far side watching the game.  They play a Bingham team which had 10 players who looked older and they kept subbing in 5 at a time about every 4-5 minutes.  Cortney's team got an early lead but fell behind by half time.  In the 2nd half they were behind by as many as 10. And frankly I began to see them losing the game.  Cortney play well throughout the game and scored 5 or 7 points in the 1st half and added several assists and a couple of steals.  After sitting our about 5 minutes she came back into the game about 8 minutes left and down by about 8.  Slowly her team chipped away and tied it up with less then a minute to play.  Bingham hit 2 free throws to go up by 2 and with 13 seconds left Cortney drove the length of the floor against the half court defense (in other words, not a fast break like last week to win the game) and scored to tie the game and force overtime.  In the overtime Bingham scored to baskets and I learned that the overtime wasn't being timed because it was the 1st team to score 5 points wins. Cortney's team scored a bucket to make it 48 to 46.  Then Bingham had about a zillion chances and even 2 free throws to score the winning point.  I'll say that Cortney got the rebound but my memory may be faulty (she did get several rebounds during the 2nd half mostly) but Cortney did get the ball after a time out and controlled it under very good defensive pressure before drawing the defenders away and then throwing bake to Kaylie ? (Kylie?) who shot a long 3 and "nothing but net" to win the game.  We celebrated with Cortney and concluded that grandma is not a jinx as she had supposed so she can keep attending the games and maybe will actually be good luck in the future.  I came home ready to get some work done, but was completely out of the mood so I had another dinner watched a little TV and now I'm going to bed still way past my bedtime, but earlier then I have for the past week plus.  My saying for today:  In life there is too much to gain to lose.
