Bengals make it official with Bryant

Football Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cincinnati Bengals announced the signings of wide receivers Antonio Bryant and Chris Davis Friday.

Terms of the contracts were not released, but Bryant's deal is believed to be for $28 million over four years, according to a Cincinnati Enquirer report on Wednesday. The pact equals that of cast-off wideout Laveranues Coles, whose contract was terminated last week after a single underwhelming season with the team.

It's unclear the terms involved in Davis' signing.

Bryant spent the past two seasons with Tampa Bay and fought through a knee injury in 2009 to catch 39 passes for 600 yards and four touchdowns over 13 games. In 2008, the eight-year veteran set career marks in nearly every offensive category with 1,248 yards and seven TDs on 83 receptions.

Over 106 career games for the Bucs, 49ers (2006), Browns (2004-05) and Cowboys (2002-04), the Pittsburgh product has amassed 5,685 yards, 30 touchdowns and 372 receptions.

Davis, a three-year NFL vet, was away from football in 2009 after reaching an injury settlement with Tennessee prior to the season. The Florida State product has seven career receptions for 69 yards in 17 games, appearing mostly on special teams.

In addition, he averaged 26 yards on six kickoff returns and 9.1 yards on 33 punt returns from 2007-08.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
