Giants place Sorgi, Moss on IR

Football Betting Lines

08/31/2010 - East Rutherford, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Giants have placed quarterback Jim Sorgi and wide receiver Sinorice Moss on injured reserve.

Sorgi, who was signed in March to back up Eli Manning, suffered a shoulder injury in the preseason opener. The veteran had spent the past six seasons backing up Manning's brother Peyton in Indianapolis.

Without Sorgi, the Giants currently have only Rhett Bomar and Dominic Randolph as backup signal-callers.

Moss, a second-round draft pick in 2006, underwent surgery on Tuesday morning to have a sports hernia repaired. He has 39 career receptions for 421 yards with three touchdowns.

The Giants also placed rookie linebacker Adrian Tracy on injured reserve. Tracy was a sixth-round pick in April's draft and had elbow surgery on Monday.

To reduce the roster to 75, the Giants also released rookie wide receiver Nyan Boateng and placed offensive lineman Kevin Boothe on the physically unable to perform list.

Boothe will miss the first six weeks of the season as he continues to recover from a torn pectoral muscle. He will then be able to practice for three weeks before the team makes a determination on his roster status for the remainder of the season.

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.
