"I got off to a bad start, but regrouped with that birdie on No. 4, " Armour admitted. "I didn't drive it well on the back nine."

 

The two-time Nationwide Tour winner parred his next four holes. Down the stretch, he turned it on. Bowden birdied the par-four 15th from 18 feet out and made it two straight as he drained an improbable 80-foot putt at 16.

 

"I've been playing good golf all year long, but I'm surprised to be in the picture. Realistically, I thought I had no shot after the first round," Bowden said of his opening 70.

 

Deane Pappas and Brad Adamonis each shot 66 to move into a share of seventh at 12-under-par 201. They were joined there by Brendon De Jonge (68), Andrew Johnson (68), John Mallinger (70), Bryce Molder (69) and Peter Tomasulo (67).

 

Grand Blanc, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiger Woods posted his third consecutive round of six-under-par 66 on Saturday to move two clear of the field after three rounds of the Buick Open. He stands at 18-under-par 198 at Warwick Hills Country Club. If Woods heads into the winner's circle (he has won 35 out of 38 times on the PGA Tour with at least a share of the 54-hole lead), he will collect PGA Tour victory No. 50. He would become the seventh man to accomplish the feat, but would be the youngest to do it at the age of 30.

 

"There's nothing more that helps your confidence than being able to say, 'I've done this before," said Woods, who is two weeks removed from his emotional win at the British Open. "My record is what it is."

 

As if trying to catch Woods on Sunday wasn't a difficult enough task, Verplank and Glover have other things on their mind. Both are outside the top-10 on the United States Ryder Cup points list with only three weeks remaining to automatically qualify.

 

Before they start figuring Ryder Cup points, there's the matter of trying to catch the No. 1 player in the world.

 

Woods bogeyed his second hole, but atoned for the dropped stroke with back-to- back birdies from the third. He parred three straight, but rolled in a 25- footer for birdie at the eighth. That got Woods to 14-under par, but he trailed Vaughn Taylor by two.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
