Roethlisberger investigation continues

Football Betting Lines

03/08/2010 - Milledgeville, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Milledgeville police chief Woodrow Blue said Monday at a brief press conference that arrangements are being made to interview Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who was recently accused of sexual assault.

Blue said that the department has been in touch with Roethlisberger's attorney, and that Roethlisberger is cooperating. Blue did not get into details of the case, only saying it is still in the investigative stage.

Georgia Bureau of Investigation special agent Tom Davis said he anticipates conducting about eight interviews over the next few days, and said the accuser has legal representation. Davis also did not disclose much about the case.

The alleged incident took place Thursday night at Milledgeville club Capitol City. Roethlisberger's agent confirmed Friday to the Pittsburgh Post- Gazette that the allegation had been made.

The alleged female victim was treated at the Oconee Regional Medical Center in Milledgeville and released.

Steelers president Art Rooney II released a statement Monday about the situation.

"All of us in the Steelers family are concerned about the recent incident involving Ben Roethlisberger in Georgia," the statement said. "We cannot comment on any of the specifics until law enforcement's investigation is concluded. Certainly, we will continue to closely monitor the situation."

Last July, the quarterback was accused in a lawsuit of raping a 31-year-old woman in a hotel room in Harrah's Casino in Lake Tahoe. Roethlisberger denied the allegations and no criminal charges were filed.

The lawsuit was put on hold late last year pending the outcome of an appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court.

Roethlisberger owns a home in Greensboro, Georgia and spends much of the NFL off-season at the location, which is approximately one hour from Milledgeville.

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.
