Broncos sign WR Lloyd

Football Betting Lines

06/15/2009 - Englewood, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Denver Broncos signed free agent wide receiver Brandon Lloyd on Monday. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not released.

Lloyd spent last season with the Chicago Bears catching passes from Kyle Orton, among others. Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels named Orton the team's starting quarterback on Saturday. Orton came to Denver in the deal that sent disgruntled QB Jay Cutler to Chicago in April.

In 2008, Lloyd appeared in 11 games, starting five, and recorded 26 receptions for 364 yards and two touchdowns for the Bears. A veteran of seven NFL seasons, Lloyd has 156 receptions for 2,253 yards and 15 touchdowns in 79 career games (47 starts) for Chicago, Washington and San Francisco.

A fourth-round selection by the 49ers in the 2003 NFL Draft out of Illinois, Lloyd's best season came in 2005 when he totaled 48 receptions and 733 receiving yards with five TDs while with San Francisco.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
