Ballouchy, Garcia, Onalfo disciplined by MLS

Soccer Betting Lines

07/30/2007 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Major League Soccer Disciplinary Committee fined Colorado Rapids midfielder Mehdi Ballouchy $1,000 and suspended him two games for violent conduct and Kansas City Wizards coach Curt Onalfo and defender Nick Garcia were fined $1,000 and $250 respectively for public criticism of an official, all stemming from the game between the two clubs on July 22.

Following the game, Onalfo and Garcia each made public comments of a critical nature towards the officiating crew headed up by referee Tim Weyland.

"Absolutely a disgrace - we got a big time job here today," Onalfo said.

In the 2-2 contest, Ballouchy collided with Wizards midfielder Sasha Victorine in first-half stoppage time at Arrowhead Stadium. Ballouchy was given a yellow card for a blow to Victorine, but the disciplinary committee decided the incident needed further review.

"Of course [they did], but the referee certainly didn't help the cause," Onalfo said when asked if the Rapids intended to use physical tactics to throw off the Wizards rhythm. "(Weyland) actually provoked it by giving us cards when they're kicking us the entire game. I'm livid, absolutely livid. Two points just stolen from us because guys don't do their job. ... A referee's job is to ref and do it the right way. That didn't happen.

"It's very frustrating. It got worse every single minute. It didn't get better. I talked to the fourth official (Andrew Chapin) at halftime about how he needs to understand what the tactics of the team are, and that's what bothers me. It's not the actual calls, it's understanding what tactics are and then letting the other team get away with it."

Super Bowl XLIV Odds

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.

Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds

With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.

That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.

Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.

After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.

The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
