Report: Marshall wants out of Denver

Football Betting Lines

06/15/2009 - Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall reportedly demanded to be traded in a meeting with team owner Pat Bowlen on Friday.

Former NFL Network reporter Adam Schefter told 850 KOA radio in Denver on Monday that Marshall has been given time to gather his thoughts and come to a definitive decision on the request. The report states the meeting took place on the first day of Denver's mandatory three-day minicamp of which Marshall was not a part. The controversial wideout is seeking a contract extension and is in the final year of a four-year contract.

The news sets up yet another volatile situation for the franchise, which will likely begin fining Marshall should his absence from team activities linger much further. The Broncos were hoping to turn the page on a forgettable offseason in which they became embroiled in a heated and very public feud with now Chicago Bears QB Jay Cutler.

Cutler forced a trade to Chicago after a falling out with new head coach Josh McDaniels only a little while after Denver explored a trade opportunity to add former Patriots QB Matt Cassel. Cassel was subsequently traded to division rival Kansas City.

Denver was fresh off naming Kyle Orton, acquired in the Cutler trade from the Bears, as their new starting quarterback this past Saturday. While the Broncos have not publicly acknowledged the trade request, they signed former Bears receiver Brandon Lloyd late Monday.

Marshall has logged back-to-back 100-catch seasons and is coming off his first Pro Bowl selection having hauled in 104 passes for 1,265 yards and six TDs in 2008.

However, the 25-year-old is also coming off hip surgery performed in April and is no stranger to making news off the field as well. He was suspended by the NFL for violating the league's personal conduct policy and has experienced several run-ins with law enforcement.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
