Rounding Out the Slate

Sunday afternoon’s Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway is the first chance this season for Sprint Cup Series drivers to earn points for the standings. Martin Truex Jr. will be on the pole for the Daytona 500 this year, while Mark Martin will start from the No. 2 position on the grid. Gatorade Duel winners Jeff Gordon and Kyle Busch will follow those two in the starting lineup. Tony Stewart is fifth on the grid, while defending Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson starts seventh, and fan-favorite Dale Earnhardt Jr. will try to work his way up from 14^th.

Ryan Newman won the Daytona 500 last year, but he’s 36^th on the starting grid and entered the week back at 12/1 odds to grab the checkered flag once again. Kyle Busch was at 7/2 odds to visit victory lane, with Earnhardt Jr. at 9/2, Johnson and Jeff Gordon at 5/1, and Stewart and Carl Edwards listed at 8/1 to win the season-opening race. Coverage is set to get going at 2:00pm ET on FOX and the latest odds updated until race time.

The Offshore Insiders Network has unveiled the new look ScoresOddsPicks.com, which includes real-time scores and odds, game matchups, previews from a sports betting standpoint, injuries, spread trend sheets, weather and much more.

Grandmaster sports handicapper Joe Duffy, CEO of Offshore Insiders said bluntly, “When big budget competitor Jim Feist Com decided to downgrade their site and eliminate all their databases, we stepped to the forefront.”

While other sites have been forced to cut back on free content, ScoresOddsPicks.com is picking up the slack.

General Manager Stevie Vincent says they’ve already gotten very positive feedback from fantasy football and basketball players as well as Vegas spread bettors on the accuracy and depth of the injury reports.

The databases have something for every level of sports handicapping. There are trend “cheat sheets” for the handicapper who lacks the time to research in-depth. However for the more painstaking punter there are comprehensive databases. 

All the information is free, no need to upgrade to a premium account.

The site is designed much after the successful scorephone roots of ScoresOddsPicks.com. In the pre-Internet days, the free scoreboard telephone numbers were the gold standard for sports handicapping information.

The versatility of the Internet gives the same information in real-time, with more flexibility and modernized content thanks to modern technology.

While Vincent promises the site will continue to improve, he says that “all the essentials are there to beat the sportsbooks.”

Brett Favre might have retired, but it doesn’t look like Kurt Warner is going anywhere. The Cardinals quarterback, who just led his team to a berth in the Super Bowl, has reportedly begun negotiations on a new contract.

Despite their successful 2008 campaign the Cards aren’t considered one of the favorites to win the trophy next season, with their odds back at around 30/1 at the sportsbooks.
