Autoracing Betting Lines

10/17/2011 - Las Vegas, NV (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - IndyCar drivers J.R. Hildebrand and Pippa Mann were released from the University Medical Center in Las Vegas on Monday, one day after suffering injuries in a 15-car crash that claimed the life of two-time Indianapolis 500 winner and former series champion Dan Wheldon.

Mann, 28, underwent surgery to clean and assess a severe burn injury to the little finger of her right hand sustained in the accident at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. She will need a subsequent operation in 2-3 weeks to fully repair the injury. Mann is expected to make a full recovery.

Hildebrand, 23, suffered a severely bruised sternum during the wreck, which required him to stay at the hospital overnight for observation.

Will Power was also taken to the hospital after complaining of lower back pain from the crash. The 30-year-old driver was released several hours later. Power trailed leader Dario Franchitti by 18 points heading into IndyCar's season- finale at Las Vegas. Franchitti claimed his record third straight and fourth overall championship in the series.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
