ISU G Boozer leaves team after arrest
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
05/03/2010 -
Ames, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Iowa State guard Charles Boozer has decided to
leave the team to seek treatment for undisclosed reasons.
"I want to apologize for my actions that put Iowa State University in a
negative light," Boozer said in a statement on Monday. "I have decided that
the best course action right now is to finish my semester and then seek
treatment."
The 6-foot-3 junior's announcement comes after he was reportedly arrested
Saturday on charges of assault. According to The Ames Tribune, Boozer was
arrested after a woman informed police that he slapped and kicked her.
"After visiting with Charles last night, I feel that his decision to leave the
program is in the best interest for both parties," said new Iowa State head
coach Fred Hoiberg. "Charles had a terrible lapse in judgment and I sincerely
hope that he learns from his mistake and can land on his feet."
Boozer averaged 3.5 points 1.5 rebounds in 16 games last season before a torn
ACL ended his season.
He is the younger brother of Utah Jazz star Carlos Boozer.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.
Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.
According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).
Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.
''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.
''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''
Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.
”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
