Alouettes QB Calvillo expected to sit vs. Ticats
Football Betting Lines
09/07/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Montreal Alouettes quarterback Anthony Calvillo will likely not play in his club's next game with the Hamilton Tiger- Cats on Saturday.
TSN of Canada and CFL.ca both reported on Tuesday that while Calvillo is expected to get one more week of rest with a chest injury, back-up Adrian McPherson will come off the injured list to take over under center.
Calvillo was removed from Montreal's 39-17 rout of Winnipeg at Molson Stadium with a bruised sternum three weeks ago, suffered when he fell on the football after Bombers linebacker Odell Willis leveled him with a crushing hit on a sack.
The veteran signal-caller was removed from the game on a stretcher and taken to a local hospital for examination and evaluation. He was kept an extra night due to the unexpected seriousness of the injury, but released to rest at home.
He sat out the Als' next game, a 38-17 loss in Montreal to the B.C. Lions which saw starter Chris Leak removed due to injury and Ricky Santos finish the contest.
Alouettes head coach Marc Trestman also ruled Leak out for the tilt, after he underwent an MRI but still felt sore, according to TSN.
According to the league site, Santos is slated to back up McPherson.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
