Soccer Betting Lines

07/29/2010 - Newcastle, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Newcastle center back Steven Taylor will be sidelined three months with a shoulder injury, the English Premier League club revealed Thursday.

Taylor, 24, dislocated the shoulder in a preseason friendly on July 17 and was forced to have surgery.

"After further assessment of the injury in the past week, the medical bulletin is that it will be a three-month period of rehabilitation," Newcastle released on its website.

Taylor will miss the start of the English Premier League season, which opens in mid-August. Newcastle added veteran defender Sol Campbell earlier this week to add depth to its central defense.

Newcastle opens against Manchester United on Aug. 16.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
