Cunningham double earns him MLS Player of the Week

Soccer Betting Lines

08/09/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - FC Dallas striker Jeff Cunningham was voted Major League Soccer's Player of the Week for Week 19, it was announced on Monday.

Cunningham scored two goals, including the game winner, in the Hoops 3-1 win over the Philadelphia Union on Sunday. The award is Cunningham's MLS record 14th all-time.

With FCD and the Union tied at one late in the second half, Cunningham scored his fifth goal of the season in the 75th minute when he headed home a perfect service from Brek Shea from the left side. The goal turned out to be Cunningham's 38th career game winner.

"I stayed out wide and Jair [Benitez] sent me a ball," Shea said. "I looked up and saw Jeff and I put it in the area for him to get a head on it and he did."

Six minutes later, Cunningham teamed up with David Ferreira to give Dallas (7-2-9) a 3-1 advantage. With the Union defense obviously tiring in the closing minutes, Ferreira found Cunningham cutting into the area before he one-timed a shot past Union goalkeeper Chris Seitz.

"Jeff is an amazing player," Shea added. "Things just haven't been going his way. [Sunday] he showed that he still can play."

Cunningham's second goal of the game gave him 127 in his MLS career, second all-time to D.C. United's Jaime Moreno's 132.

The MLS Player of the Week award is selected each week by the North American Soccer Reporters. The group consists of members of online, print, television, radio media. More information can be found at soccerreporters.com.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
