Soccer Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - Leverkusen, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bayer Leverkusen have secured the future of Germany international Stefan Kiessling until the summer of 2015 with a new contract.

Kiessling has been rewarded with a new long-term deal on the back of a season where he currently leads the Bundesliga scoring charts with 16 goals.

"My family and I are very happy in Leverkusen and the club has excellent long- term potential," explained the striker. "Therefore, there is no reason for me to change anything."

Kiessling looks set to earn a place in Germany's World Cup squad for South Africa this summer following his stunning club form.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
