Football Betting Lines
07/29/2010 - Englewood, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Denver Broncos agreed to terms with quarterback Tim Tebow, a first-round selection in the 2010 NFL Draft, on Thursday.
Financial terms were not disclosed, but The Denver Post reports it is a five- year deal worth between $11.5 million and $12 million, with more than $8 million guaranteed.
The contract agreement allows Tebow to join other Broncos rookies and early- reporting veterans in practice. Denver's training camp officially starts Sunday with the first full-team session.
Denver selected Tebow with the 25th overall pick in the draft after he completed a stellar collegiate career at Florida. The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, Tebow helped the Gators win two national championships in his four years at the school.
Tebow is the only player in NCAA history to rush and pass for at least 20 touchdowns in a season, and he also holds the SEC mark for career touchdowns.
The 22-year-old helped Florida to a Sugar Bowl win over Cincinnati this past season, throwing for 2,895 yards and 21 touchdowns. He also ran for 910 yards and 14 more scores on 217 attempts.

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.
