Canadian Tour events in Mexico postponed
Golf Betting Lines
04/29/2009 -
San Luis Potosi, MX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Canadian Tour has postponed the
final two events on its Mexican Swing because of health issues in Mexico.
This week's scheduled stop for the San Luis Potosi Open will continue, but the
following two events -- the Yucatan Country Club Classic and the Iberostar
Riviera Maya Open -- will be rescheduled for later in the year.
An outbreak of swine flu has reportedly killed more than 100 people in the
country and has forced the closure of schools, museums and other public
places.
"With the heightened alerts in Mexico, we have taken the precaution of
protecting the health and safety of our members," said Canadian Tour
commissioner Richard Janes in a statement.
"The Iberostar Resort and the Merida airport will be shut down as a safeguard
and the Canadian Tour is making the necessary arrangements with its travel
partners to bring our players home.
"As it stands today, our players are in San Luis Potosi and the event will
take place as scheduled with strict safety precautions in place. However, we
are constantly monitoring the situation and will take the necessary steps
should circumstances change."
The Tour played its first of four scheduled events in Mexico last week at the
Mazatlan Mexican PGA.
Following this week's tournament, the Canadian Tour will now have a month-long
hiatus as the next event won't take place until June 4.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
