Bucs bring back Jevan Snead

Football Betting Lines

08/24/2010 - Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have re-signed quarterback Jevan Snead in light of Josh Freeman's injury over the weekend.

Snead was originally signed as an undrafted free agent in April after a standout collegiate career at Ole Miss despite skipping his senior year. He was subsequently let go at the end of July.

Freeman is expected to miss the remainder of the preseason after fracturing his thumb on a throw in Saturday's win over the Chiefs. However, he is expected to be ready for the team's season opener against Cleveland on September 12.

Snead threw for 2,632 yards and 20 touchdowns with 20 interceptions last year as a junior, leading the Rebels to a 9-4 finish with a win over Oklahoma State in the Cotton Bowl. His 46 career touchdown passes are second only to Eli Manning's school record of 81.

The Buccaneers also announced the re-signing of defensive end George Johnson, who was waived by the team two weeks ago. The move became necessary as Tampa also waived/injured defensive end Brandon Gilbeaux on Tuesday.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
