Football Betting Lines
09/04/2010 -
Lake Forest, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wide receiver Juaquin Iglesias and
defensive lineman Jarron Gilbert, a pair of third-round draft choices of the
Chicago Bears in 2009, were released by the team as part of their Saturday
"cut-down day" maneuvers.
Iglesias starred at Oklahoma as a collegian, but appeared in just one game as a
rookie and could not crack a crowded depth chart at wide receiver or suitably
impress new offensive coordinator Mike Martz in the preseason.
Gilbert, the former YouTube sensation out of San Jose State, played in four
games as a rookie but could not make enough of an impact to stick with the team
for a second season.
Both players have practice squad eligibility.
Also released on Saturday were safety Al Afalava, tight end Richard Angulo,
wide receiver Freddie Barnes, offensive lineman Josh Beekman, defensive back
Cornelius Brown, offensive lineman Levi Horn, quarterback Dan LeFevour,
linebacker Kevin Malast, offensive lineman James Marten, wide receiver Greg
Mathews, defensive back Quentin Scott, linebacker Tim Shaw, linebacker Kelvin
Smith, defensive back Woodny Turenne, defensive lineman Barry Turner, center
Tim Walter, safety Aaron Webster, fullback Eddie Williams, offensive lineman
Edwin Williams, and defensive end Mick Williams.
Notables among that group include Afalava, who started 13 games for the Bears
at strong safety last season; Angulo, who has appeared in 27 NFL games since
breaking into the league in 2003, most recently with the Jacksonville Jaguars
in 2008; and Shaw, who set a team record with 30 special-teams tackles in 2009.
The Bears open their regular season next Sunday, when they play host to the NFC
North rival Detroit Lions.

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.
