Soccer Betting Lines

11/03/2009 - Washington, D.C. (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - D.C. United coach Tom Soehn removed his name from consideration for United's head coaching position Tuesday ahead of his contract expiring at the end of the year.

Soehn was D.C. United's assistant from 2004-06, then led the club to the best record in MLS in 2007 and a U.S. Open Cup crown in 2008 in his three years as head coach.

"My family and I have spent a lot of time in reaching this very difficult decision," Soehn said. "I've been fortunate to spend the last six seasons with this organization."

In all competitions, Soehn posted a career mark of 55-48-31. D.C. was 36-30-24 in MLS in his three years at the helm. In three seasons as an assistant, D.C. won the 2004 MLS Cup and had the best record in MLS in 2006.

"Tommy has done an outstanding job at D.C. United, first as an assistant and then as our head coach," United President and CEO Kevin Payne said. "Tommy is a fine young coach and I know we will face him in the future in MLS play."

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.
