Football Betting Lines

01/30/2012 - Calgary, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Calgary Stampeders re-signed their longest-serving player, nine-year non-import veteran linebacker Marc Calixte, on Monday.

Per club policy, terms of the agreement were not released,

"I'm proud to have been a member of the Stampeders for my entire CFL career," said Calixte. "I'm looking forward to my 10th season in Calgary and another opportunity to return to the Grey Cup game."

Calixte and the Stampeders won a Grey Cup in 2008.

"We don't ever underestimate the importance and value of strength on special teams," said Stamps head coach and general manager John Hufnagel. "Marc is as effective a special-teams player as you can find in the CFL and it's great that he will be back for a 10th season."

Calixte, selected in the first round (seventh overall) by the Stampeders in the 2003 CFL Canadian Draft, played three seasons at the University of Tennessee-Martin.

Super Bowl XLIV Odds

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.

Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds

With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.

That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.

Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.

After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.

The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
