Soccer Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester City coach Roberto Mancini admitted he is interested in United States and Los Angeles Galaxy star Landon Donovan.

Donovan played 10 games on loan at Everton last season and had two goals in 10 games for the English Premier League club. Donovan recently played well at the FIFA World Cup for the United States, which won Group C.

Mancini wouldn't rule out making a bid for the 28-year-old.

"Landon Donovan is a good player," Mancini said Wednesday. "It's possible."

Manchester City has already spent around $100 million this offseason for the trio of David Silva from World Cup champion Spain, Yaya Toure from the Ivory Coast and Jerome Boateng from Germany.

City finished fifth in the EPL last season.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
