Raiders release RB Fargas

Football Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Alameda, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Raiders released long-time running back Justin Fargas on Saturday.

The team indicated Fargas had failed a physical and issued a statement thanking him for his contributions over seven seasons with the club. He was also reportedly due to receive a $1.7 million roster bonus on Monday.

The 30-year-old played through nagging injuries the last two years after setting career highs in nearly every offensive category in 2007, when he posted his lone 1,000-yard season and scored four touchdowns.

Fargas split carries with Darren McFadden and Michael Bush during the 2009 season and gained 491 yards on 129 carries with three touchdowns in 12 games. He added 113 yards on 17 catches. The move opens the door for 2008's No. 4 overall pick McFadden to finally shoulder the bulk of the rushing load in Oakland, although he too has been plagued by injuries.

In his seven seasons in Silver and Black, Fargas, Oakland's third-round pick in 2003 out of USC, rushed for 3,369 yards and 10 TDs while adding 523 yards on 77 receptions.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
