Soccer Betting Lines

07/20/2010 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chivas USA and United States defender Jonathan Bornstein, a four-time Major League Soccer All-Star, will join Tigres UANL of the Mexican First Division following the 2010 season.

Bornstein will complete his contract with Chivas before joining the Monterrey- based team on January 1.

"First and foremost, I remain focused on finishing this season with Chivas USA," said Bornstein. "There is a lot we can accomplish, from SuperLiga this week to the Open Cup semifinals in September, getting into the playoffs and making a run at MLS Cup.

"When the season ends, I'm excited to join Tigres and ready for all the changes that will come with the move. It will be a big moment for me and I'm looking forward to it."

Bornstein joined Chivas as the team's fourth round pick (37th overall) in the 2006 MLS SuperDraft, and earned Rookie of the Year honors in his first season.

An MLS All-Star from 2007-2010, Bornstein has played 112 regular-season games, including 100 starts, in his MLS. He also has nine goals and nine assists.

With the U.S., Bornstein scored a goal in his debut match against Denmark and has played 34 games with the squad, scoring twice. Bornstein played in matches against Algeria and Ghana in the recent FIFA World Cup.

"From his first day with the club, you could see that Jonathan was a special player, both for his talent and his dedication," said Chivas USA coach Martin Vasquez. "He is a player who worked hard for every opportunity he has been given."

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
