11/08/2011 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National Football League Players Association announced on Tuesday its plans to host the 2012 Collegiate Bowl.

The event will take place on January 21 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.

"Our mission is to provide these young men with an unforgettable all-star game experience but just as importantly with invaluable information for their transition out of college," said NFLPA assistant executive director Clark Gaines. "The NFLPA is a player's primary resource for information on the business of football, and we will educate these players on how to succeed in the NFL and in their post-football careers."

Super Bowl-winning head coach Tom Flores, along with former Eagles, Rams and Chiefs head coach Dick Vermeil will guide the pool of 100 of America's top draft prospects -- regardless of their year of eligibility -- in front of scouts and fans alike.

For the week leading up to the Bowl, a stable of NFL players from past and present will provide guidance to the participants on how to achieve success as a professional both on and off the field.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
