Menard to drive No.98 for Yates in '09
Autoracing Betting Lines
11/18/2008 - Concord, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Yates Racing announced Tuesday that Paul Menard will drive the No.98 Ford for the team during the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season.
Menard spent his first two years in Sprint Cup competition driving the No.15 Chevrolet for Dale Earnhardt Inc., but is leaving the racing organization and bringing sponsorship from his family-owned chain of hardware stores to Yates.
"I'm really looking forward to starting this new chapter of my life with Yates Racing and behind the wheel of the No.98 Ford Fusion," Menard said.
Menard finished 26th in the 2008 point standings, while earning his first career pole in July at Daytona International Speedway and his first career top-five finish (second) in October at Talladega Superspeedway.
Veteran crew chief Larry Carter will team up with Menard on the No.98 car. Carter is moving over from Roush Fenway Racing, where he served as Jamie McMurray's crew chief the past two seasons.
"It's exciting to be starting with Max (Jones) and Doug (Yates), and having Larry Carter on the box making the calls," Menard said. "I've seen how solid the Roush/Yates engine program has been over the years and I know we can have a really good season in the No.98 Menards Ford Fusion."
Yates also fields Fords for drivers David Gilliland and Travis Kvapil in Sprint Cup, but currently lacks full-time sponsorship for both teams. However, Yates is associated with Roush Fenway Racing, receiving technical and sponsorship support from them.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009
Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
