Soccer Betting Lines

02/03/2012 - Parma, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Parma striker Hernan Crespo confirmed his departure from the Italian club on Friday, with Crespo widely expected to complete a move to India in the coming weeks.

The 36-year-old Crespo announced at a press conference on Friday that he had terminated his contract with the club, although he said that he had not yet made a decision on his next destination.

"It's hard for me because I leave Parma while having played at a high level for 19 years," Crespo said. "I owe it all to the supporters and Parma."

"I have kept my promise in finishing my top-level career here. (Leaving) was not an easy decision, but now I want to have fun."

"I want to clarify that at this time, there are other options. (My agent and I have) discussed the Indian proposal, but nothing is concrete just yet."

Crespo appeared in over 60 games for Argentina during his international career, and has collected a host of trophies over the years while playing for Parma, Chelsea, Inter Milan and AC Milan.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
