Seattle inks Fernandez as third DP
Soccer Betting Lines
07/29/2010 -
Renton, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Seattle Sounders FC signed Uruguay national
team midfielder Alvaro Fernandez, the Major League Soccer club announced on
Thursday.
The 24-year-old Fernandez, who will be Seattle's third designated player,
joining Freddie Ljungberg and Blaise Nkufo, played four matches for Uruguay
during the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
"Alvaro is a versatile player who can play in a number of midfield positions,"
Sounders coach Sigi Schmid said. "He brings good energy to the game as well as
World Cup experience. He can score and also set-up others."
"I'm very excited to be playing in the U.S. because the football has grown a
lot in the last few years and keeps getting better," Fernandez said. "Seattle
is beautiful and I think it's the ideal place to be with my family. All these
things helped in making my decision."
On top of his national team experience, Fernandez is a veteran of top-flight
leagues in Uruguay, Mexico, Portugal and Chile.
"My goals are always the same whenever I join a team: try to help, on and off
the field; help the club achieve its goals; and, obviously, win
championships," Fernandez said. "I believe I can contribute through my
experience. I describe myself as a fast, smooth player, who can play on either
flank. I am strong in the air, and I work very hard."
"Alvaro is experienced internationally and he has demonstrated a tremendous
work rate and great tactical awareness," Sounders technical director Chris
Henderson said. "He likes to connect passes, possesses good pace and moves
well off the ball."
Fernandez' signing will be finalized upon receipt of his International
Transfer Certificate. Per MLS and club policy, terms were not disclosed.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.

Super Bowl XLIV Odds
Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.
Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.
Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds
With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.
That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.
Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.
After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.
The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
