Soccer Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - San Jose, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - San Jose Earthquakes midfielder Bobby Convey was named to MLS All-Star roster by coach Bruce Arena on Thursday.

Convey will replace injured Jonathan Bornstein. Convey is the first member of the Earthquakes to be named an All-Star since the team rejoined MLS in 2008.

The MLS All-Stars play Manchester United on Wednesday at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas at 8:30 p.m. (ET).

Convey has been crucial to the Quakes in 2010, appearing in all 14 matches and recording assists on eight of the club's 18 goals. The eight assists are a career high.

Convey won 46 caps with the United States, including appearances in all three matches in the 2006 World Cup when the U.S. was coached by Arena. Arena is now the coach of the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Bornstein, a current member of Chivas USA and the U.S. team, sustained a knee injury against the Houston Dynamo in SuperLiga play and will miss the All-Star game.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
