Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics have signed center/forward
Jermaine O'Neal.
As per team policy, no terms of the deal were announced.

the mid-level exception of $5.7 million for the 2010-11 campaign.
O'Neal spent last season with the Miami Heat and averaged 13.6 points with 6.9
rebounds in 70 games, all starts. He joined the Heat in a February 2009 trade

"When the opportunity arose for me to join an organization like the Celtics, I
could not refuse," O'Neal said. "I cannot wait to get to Boston and start to
practice with the rest of the team in pursuit of a championship."
The 31-year-old veteran is a six-time All-Star who entered the NBA straight
out of high school in 1996 and spent his first four seasons with Portland. He

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines
Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow. Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season. Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints. These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order. As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS. The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens. The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6
Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)
Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)
