Cummings named MLS Player of the Week
Soccer Betting Lines
09/06/2010 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Colorado Rapids striker Omar Cummings was
named the MLS Player of the Week for Week 23 on Monday as he had a hand in all
three of Colorado's goals in a 3-0 win over Chivas USA on Saturday.
Cummings is the first Colorado player this season to win the award, and he
owes much of the credit to a change in footwear at halftime.
"I didn't think we played well the first half, especially me," Cummings told
the team's official website after the game. "My touches were bad and off a
little bit. So going into the second half, I thought why not change (my
shoes), change my attitude and be more aggressive, take some shots and try to
score some goals."
Whatever it was, the plan worked as Cummings helped to set up the opening goal
from Conor Casey in the 52nd minute, before sealing the win with a pair of
goals in a 13-minute span.
The MLS Player of the Week award is selected each week by the North American
Soccer Reporters. The group consists of members of online, print, television,
radio media. More information can be found at soccerreporters.com.

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.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
Chris Leak (QB, Florida)
