Briscoe rebounds with Texas win

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/06/2010 - Fort Worth, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Six days after crashing in the Indianapolis 500, Ryan Briscoe from Team Penske bounced back in the IZOD IndyCar Series with an impressive win in Saturday's Firestone 550k at Texas Motor Speedway.

Briscoe, the pole sitter, led 102 of 228 laps, but had to hold off a hard- charging Danica Patrick in the closing laps. The Aussie finished 1.46 seconds ahead of Patrick for his first victory of the season and the sixth of his IndyCar career. He also gave team owner Roger Penske his fourth win in the last five races at Texas.

Patrick's second-place finish followed her sixth-place run in the Indy 500. Her Andretti Autosport teammate, Marco Andretti, finished third, while Target Chip Ganassi Racing drivers Scott Dixon and Dario Franchitti, the reigning Indy 500 champion, completed the top-five.

Franchitti appeared to be on his way to a second-straight victory after leading 86 laps, but he fell back in the field after a late-race round of pit stops. He took over the points lead after Penske's Will Power finished 14th. Power had led in the championship standings since the start of the season.

Rookie Simona de Silvestro suffered a minor burn on her right hand after she made hard contact with the wall and then her No.78 car caught on fire. Track safety crews quickly assisted in getting her out of the heavily damaged car.

Helio Castroneves, the defending race winner, was involved in a crash with Mario Moraes during the mid-stages and ended up finishing 20th.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
