Soccer Betting Lines

08/23/2010 - Wigan, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wigan completed the signing of defender Steven Caldwell on Monday on a free transfer.

Caldwell, 29, was released by Burnley at the end of last season after the club was relegated to the Championship, and after spending some time on trial with the Latics, he was handed a one-year contract that will allow him to team up with his brother, Gary.

"Gary has of course told me what the club is like and how impressed he has been with the set up here, and I am delighted to have sorted out my future now," he told the club's official website. "I have already got to know the lads over the past few weeks and I can't wait to get started and fight for my place."

Caldwell's career began at Newcastle before he moved on to Sunderland and then Burnley, where he made 13 appearances in all competitions last season.

Also on Monday, Wigan striker Jason Scotland completed a move to Championship side Ipswich Town on a free transfer after scoring one goal in 32 appearances for Wigan last season.

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.
