Golf Betting Lines

06/08/2007 - Memphis, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Daly issued a statement Friday in which he says he was assaulted by his wife while he slept.

Daly played the second round of the St. Jude Classic in Memphis with scratch marks on his cheeks. News outlets reported Daly told authorities his wife tried to stab him with a steak knife.

"While I slept at home last night, I was the victim of an assault by my wife," Daly's statement begins.

The 41-year-old golfer, who lives in nearby Cordova, Tennessee, filed a complaint with the Shelby County Sheriff's Office, which is investigating the incident. Daly said he would have no further comment on the situation.

"My only concern at this point is for the safety of my children and myself, and we are working closely with local authorities and PGA Tour security officials to assure appropriate safeguards," the statement read.

Daly married his fourth wife, Sherrie, in 2001. They both filed for divorce last October, but it never came to pass.

Struggling as of late, the two-time major champion is playing this week on a sponsor's exemption.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
