Autoracing Betting Lines

08/07/2010 - Watkins Glen, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Marcos Ambrose put on a dominating performance to win the Zippo 200 Nationwide Series race at Watkins Glen International for the third year in a row.

Ambrose, the pole sitter, led 60 of 82 laps and easily held off Joey Logano at the finish by nearly three seconds to win Saturday's race at Watkins Glen.

Kevin Harvick finished third, followed by Brad Keselowski, the current points leader, and Kyle Busch, who was seeking his record-tying 10th win in the series this season.

Keselowski widened his lead to 327 points over Carl Edwards, who suffered engine failure early in the race and wound up finishing 33rd.

Ambrose joined Terry Labonte as the only drivers to win three consecutive Nationwide races at Watkins Glen. Labonte accomplished the feat here from 1994-96.

A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
