Redskins cut WR Thrash after failed physical
Football Betting Lines
06/12/2009 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins released wide receiver James Thrash after the 34-year-old failed a physical Friday.
Thrash has spent 12 years in the NFL, nine with the Redskins in two different stints after signing with the team as an undrafted free agent in 1997.
"I talked with James, and we agreed that this was the best way to proceed," said Redskins head coach Jim Zorn. "James can focus on getting healthy, and we can move forward. James is a true Redskin and a fan favorite. He was a great player, teammate and team leader. Though we had to make this decision, we are confident that James will be involved in some capacity within the Redskins organization."
Over his career, spanning 165 games with 71 starts, Thrash has caught 290 passes for 3,646 yards and 22 touchdowns. His career-best season came with the Eagles in 2001, when he made 63 receptions for 833 yards and eight scores.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
