Football Betting Lines

07/27/2010 - Tulsa, OK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tampa Bay linebacker ERIC ORTIZ, Milwaukee quarterback CHRIS GREISEN and Orlando linebacker MARLON MOYE-MOORE have been named the JLS Ironman, Russell Athletic Offensive Players and Riddell Defensive Player of the Week, respectively, for Week 17 of 2010. In addition to these three awards, the AFL is also highlighting the player who makes the best Catch of the Week, the Playmaker of the Week and the Highlight of the Week. The Cutters Catch of the Week Award for Week 17 goes to Utah wide receiver AARON BOONE, while Milwaukee wide receiver DAMIAN HARRELL and Jacksonville defensive back MICHEAUX ROBINSON have been named the Playmakers of the Week. The Highlight of the Week award has gone to Spokane defensive back MERVIN BROOKINS.

JLS IRONMAN OF THE WEEK

Ortiz (6-3, 255, Belhaven) gave Tampa Bay the momentum they needed to jumpstart the offense, scoring the first two touchdowns for the Storm after falling to a 10-0 deficit. After a shutout in the first quarter, Ortiz scored his first touchdown from a 1-yard carry. Less than three minutes later, Ortiz ran in 4-yard pitch from QB Dietz, taking a 14-10 lead. Tampa Bay would never let Alabama recapture the lead. In the 53-29 victory, Ortiz was also a force for the defense, accumulating 4.5 tackles.

RUSSELL ATHLETIC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

Greisen (6-3, 220, NW Missouri) exhausted the Barnstormers defense, pulling off a thrilling 75-67 win to clinch the Midwest Division for Milwaukee. Greisens outstanding game statistics explain why he is No. 1 in total offense (4,947) and total passing (4,942) this season, more than 100 yards over the next contender in each category. Against Iowa, Greisen completed 30-of-40 passes for eight touchdowns and a season-high 413 yards.

RIDDELL DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

Moye-Moore (6-2, 250, Maryland) had the experience the Predators needed to beat Oklahoma City and clinch a spot in the playoffs. The six-year veteran caught his second interception of the season at the end of the first quarter, running it back for a 13-yard touchdown. Moye-Moore also had a season-high nine tackles and one tackle for loss. Tanner Varner also had a tremendous game for the Iowa Barnstormers, catching an interception for a 56-yard touchdown and nine tackles in the night.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
