NASCAR fines Kurt Busch

Autoracing Betting Lines

11/25/2011 - Daytona Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - NASCAR has fined driver Kurt Busch $50,000 for his actions during this past Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Busch was cited for making actions detrimental to stock car racing, specifically using an inappropriate hand gesture and abusive language.

"In issuing the penalty, NASCAR cited Busch's 'poor judgment' in making an inappropriate hand gesture' when he drove his car into the garage early in the race after it experienced transmission problems," NASCAR said in a release. "In addition, NASCAR said Busch showed 'disrespect towards a media member,' an incident that followed similar inappropriate media confrontations earlier in the season."

Busch, whose car was sent to the garage during the race due to transmission trouble, was videotaped using foul language while waiting to be interviewed by an ESPN reporter.

The fine came three days after Steve Addington, announced he would not return as crew chief for Busch's No.22 Dodge at Penske Racing in 2012.

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).
