Ho-hum Skinner wins another pole

Autoracing Betting Lines

08/11/2007 - Lebanon, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mike Skinner captured the pole for this evening's Toyota Tundra 200 Craftsman Truck Series race at the Nashville Superspeedway. The 1995 series champion circled the 1.333-mile cement oval in 30.061 seconds (159.635 m.p.h.).

The pole victory was Skinner's eighth of the season and record 40th of his truck career. No other driver has more than one pole victory in 2007.

Starting alongside Skinner will be three-time series champion Jack Sprague, who posted a time of 30.128 seconds.

Defending series champion Todd Bodine (30.206) and Joey Clanton (30.215) will make up row two.

Skinner continues to dominate the Craftsman Truck Series leaderboard. The No.5 Bill Davis Toyota driver leads the series in points (2,346), driver rating (121.8), winnings ($490,750), laps led (811), wins (4), poles (8), top- fives (11) and races led (14).

Yet with all of these statistics, his lead is only 77 points over Ron Hornaday Jr. The Palmdale, CA native has also had a great year winning three times and earning 13 top-10s. His win total and top-10s are already more than he collected in all of 2006.

Hornaday Jr. is coming off a dominating win at O'Reilly Raceway Park, leading 90 of 201 laps en route to a 0.350-second win over Johnny Benson. Skinner finished 20th in the race, the first time all season that he failed to crack the top-10.

The race is set to drop the green flag tonight at 6:30 p.m. (et).

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
