Calderon says Real's pursuit of Ronaldo is done

Soccer Betting Lines

10/24/2008 - Madrid, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has drawn a line under his club's protracted pursuit of Cristiano Ronaldo after claiming their interest in the Manchester United star is over.

The Portugal international was at the center of a tug-of-war between the two clubs during the summer after suggesting he was keen to join the Spanish champions.

United reported Real to FIFA over their public pursuit of the 23-year-old wideman and ultimately persuaded him to remain at Old Trafford.

Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson has since suggested that Real will attempt to renew their interest next summer, but Calderon claims his club now has no plans to sign the favorite to be named the recipient of this year's Ballon d'Or and world player of the year accolades.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)
