  "account": "The Calgary Stampeders face an uncertain future in the Canadian Football League playoffs after a recent loss. Despite a 9-7 record, the Stamps find themselves in third place in the West Division, trailing the B.C. Lions by a game. A victory against the Lions on Saturday could still propel Calgary to the postseason, but they must hope that the Winnipeg Blue Bombers lose both of their remaining regular-season games. Should Edmonton secure the top spot and B.C. emerge victorious in their final two contests, the Stampeders could secure second place and a spot in the division semifinal. However, it appears unlikely that the Stamps will capture the top spot in the West.",
  "summary": "The Calgary Stampeders will be playing for much more than the season series with the B.C. Lions on Saturday night.",
