Autoracing Betting Lines

10/02/2011 - Sparta, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ed Carpenter became a first-time race winner in the IZOD IndyCar Series by taking Sunday's Kentucky Indy 300, while Dario Franchitti's second-place finish allowed him to take over the points lead with only one race to go.

Carpenter and Franchitti ran side-by side for the lead during the final 20 laps. Carpenter nipped Franchitti to the finish line by just 0.0098 seconds, making it the sixth closest margin in series history.

His first IndyCar win came in his 114th start. He had finished second in this race the past two years.

Scott Dixon finished third, while rookie James Hinchcliffe and Ryan Hunter- Reay completed the top-five.

Will Power started on the pole and led the first 48 laps, but during a round of pit stops, Power made contact with Ana Beatriz while entering his stall, causing damage to his car. He ended up finishing 19th.

Franchitti, who led the most laps with 142, took an 18-lead over Power. Franchitti will attempt to win his third consecutive and fourth overall IndyCar championship on October 16 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
