Sadler earns first truck win at Pocono

Autoracing Betting Lines

07/31/2010 - Long Pond, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Elliott Sadler held off Kasey Kahne during a second green-white-checkered finish to win the inaugural Pocono Mountains 125 Camping World Truck Series race at Pocono Raceway.

Just after the restart for the first two-lap overtime finish, Sadler got a push from behind by Justin Lofton and moved ahead of Kahne to take the lead. Johnny Sauter got loose and bumped into Ron Hornaday Jr., as Hornaday spun around and then slammed into the infield wall in turn three. That set up the second green-white-checkered attempt.

Sadler easily pulled away from Kahne after the final restart and beat his Richard Petty Motorsports teammate in the Sprint Cup Series by 0.45 seconds for his first truck win in his eighth start.

"Kasey races me so clean, and he's the best teammate in the world to have," said Sadler, who started on the pole and led 31 of 55 laps. "He was good on the bottom, and I was good on the outside. When we had that last restart, it just worked out for us. I knew he was going to be the guy to beat."

Driving the No.2 Chevrolet, Sadler became the third different Kevin Harvick Inc. driver to win in the last three races. Harvick picked up the win two weeks ago at Gateway International Raceway, while Hornaday claimed his first victory of the season last weekend at O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis.

Sadler also became the 21st different driver to win a race in each of NASCAR's three national touring series. However, Sadler had not won a NASCAR event since September, 2004 when he took the Sprint Cup race at Fontana, CA.

"I told these guys [on the team] on the last lap that I pretty much had tears in my eyes," he said. "It's been such a tough couple of years."

Kahne, who drove the No.18 Toyota for Kyle Busch Motorsports, tried to capture his third win in as many career truck starts. Kahne won in each of his first two starts, which came at the tail end of the 2004 season.

"It was a ton of fun racing this truck for Kyle, and this is a really good team," Kahne said. "We should have been battling Elliott. I had the best truck, but I didn't win the race. I'm disappointed in myself for that."

Matt Crafton finished third, followed by Aric Almirola and rookie Justin Lofton.

Mike Skinner, Austin Dillon, also a rookie in the series this year, Timothy Peters, Denny Hamlin and Jason White completed the top-10.

Hamlin held the lead late in the race, but the Sprint Cup regular scraped the wall and fell behind.

Points leader Todd Bodine overcame a spin in the closing laps to finish 12th. Bodine now holds a 149-point advantage over Almirola.

Hornaday took a huge hit in points after his 29th-place finish. The four-time and defending series champion dropped to seventh in the standings, as he trails Bodine by 268 points.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
