RSL eyes top spot in league against Seattle
Soccer Betting Lines
09/08/2010 -
Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake entered this season as defending
Major League Soccer champions, and according to midfielder Andy Williams, they
also had a few goals in mind.
"At the beginning of the year, we had our goals where we had four trophies to
play for," Williams told mlssoccer.com. "Unfortunately, we got knocked out of
the Open Cup, and so we have three [goals] right now."
One of those goals is to retain the MLS Cup title the team won last season,
while the club is also involved in the CONCACAF Champions League.
But the third goal is not as easy to recognize because it is for RSL to win
the Supporters' Shield, which is something they hope to move closer to with a
win over Seattle Sounders FC at Qwest Field on Thursday.
Real enters the match one point back of both the Columbus Crew and the Los Angeles Galaxy for the most points in MLS, and according to defender Nat
Borchers, winning the Supporters' Shield would be a big accomplishment for his
team.
"To win the Supporters' Shield would be a fantastic thing to put in our trophy
case," he said. "It's one of the toughest things in sports to do: to say that
you were the best team over the entire season."
RSL has put together a good run of form that has helped them pull to within a
point of the Galaxy in the West, and they bring not only a seven-game unbeaten
streak into the contest, but a streak of three successive clean sheets
spanning 352 minutes.
Seattle is more concerned with just making the playoffs as opposed to
finishing the regular season with the most points, and after losing 3-1 to the
New England Revolution last time out, which snapped a seven-game unbeaten
streak, the club is in need of three points.
The Sounders are currently in sixth place in the Western Conference table, but
they sit only two points back of fourth-place Colorado with six games still
remaining after Thursday's contest.

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. NFL Wagering
