Herman bests Kirk in Moonah Classic playoffGolf Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Victoria, Australia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jim Herman owned at least a share of the lead after each of the first three rounds, but needed an extra hole Sunday to walk off with the title at the Moonah Classic. Herman birdied the first playoff hole to defeat his third-round co-leader Chris Kirk to claim his first Nationwide Tour title. "I am overwhelmed. I've been waiting for this to happen for a long time, a professional win," admitted Herman, who earned $126,000 for the victory. "I've won on a couple of other levels, but not this high a level." Herman, who had missed seven straight cuts dating to the end of last season, and Kirk both closed with two-under 70s to finish at 11-under-par 277. They returned to the 18th hole for the playoff and Herman converted a six-foot birdie putt to become the season's second first-time winner. "I am just so pleased with how I hung in today," said Herman. "I take my hat off to Chris, he played fabulous all week. Today, he played great, but he let me back in on 16 and 17 and I took advantage of it." Last week's winner, Robert Gates, closed with a six-under 66 on the Open Course at Moonah Links to miss the playoff by a single stroke at minus-10. Jarrod Lyle, who defeated Kirk in playoff at the 2008 Knoxville Open, shot four-under 68 to share fourth place with Tag Ridings (67) at nine-under 279. Kirk looked as though he was going to collect his first Nationwide Tour title as he led by two shots with three holes to go. However, he stumbled to bogeys on 16 and 17 to drop into a share of the lead with Herman. They parred the par-five 18th and it was off to the playoff. The 24-year-old Kirk grabbed the early lead with birdies on two and four. Herman stumbled to a bogey on five, but Kirk's lead was still two over Lyle. Herman rebounded with a birdie on the sixth and he later birdied the ninth to get within one. Kirk parred nine consecutive holes from the fifth and Herman made five straight pars from the 10th. Kirk pushed his cushion back to two with a birdie on 14 before they both birdied the par-five 15th. Kirk stumbled into the clubhouse for his second playoff loss on the Nationwide Tour. Manuel Villegas closed with a five-under 67 to take sixth at eight-under-par 280. Andrew Dodt (70) was one stroke back at minus-seven. Jeff Brehaut (68) and Martin Piller (68) shared eighth at minus-six. NOTES: Alistair Presnell, the 2009 winner, stumbled to a one-over 73 to share 15th place at minus-four...The Nationwide Tour is off the next two weeks before returning to action at the Panama Championship, where Vance Veazey won last year.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change TeamsIt’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. To visit this sportsbook go to MySportsbook.com for all your college football betting needs.
