Ambrose's mistake gives Edwards the win at Montreal

Autoracing Betting Lines

08/30/2009 - Montreal, Canada (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Marcos Ambrose was once again denied the victory at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve after he made a costly mistake on a last- lap turn and allowed Carl Edwards to steal the victory in Sunday's NAPA Auto Parts 200.

Ambrose led 60 of 76 laps, but victory at Montreal eluded him for the third consecutive year when he overshot the final corner on the last lap in a green- white-checkered finish. Edwards made the pass on the way to his third Nationwide win of the season.

A disappointed Ambrose finished second, followed Canadians Andrew Ranger and Jacques Villeneuve. Brad Keselowski completed the top-five.

With the victory, Edwards trimmed Kyle Busch's lead to 192 points. Busch spun on the final restart and wound up finishing 10th.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
