Former 49ers, Dolphins WR Solomon diesFootball Betting Lines02/13/2012 - Santa Clara, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Freddie Solomon, a wide receiver and punt returner for the Miami Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers in the 1970s and 80s, has died. Solomon, 59, died Monday, the 49ers said in a statement. He had been battling cancer. "The 49ers lost a member of our family today. We'll miss you, Freddie Solomon. Our prayers go out to your family," 49ers president and CEO Jed York said on Twitter. Solomon was a second-round draft pick by Miami in 1975 and played three seasons for the Dolphins before he was traded to San Francisco, where he made his mark as an important part of Bill Walsh's West Coast offense. He played his final eight seasons with the 49ers and finished his NFL career with 371 catches for 5,846 yards and 48 touchdowns. Jerry Rice, considered the best wide receiver in NFL history, said Solomon was influential in teaching him about work ethic and professionalism. "He inspired me to go out there every day and emulate him," Rice said in a statement released through the 49ers. Quarterback Joe Montana considered Solomon "a dear friend and a great teammate." "There was no one who gave more on and off the field than Freddie," said Montana. "The kindness he demonstrated was inspirational to all that knew him, and a joy to be around. The warmth of his smile will be forever embedded in my mind and heart." After he retired, Solomon spent much of his time volunteering his service to the community. He was named the University of Tampa's Athlete of the Century in 2002.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL linesNow 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. MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds: Saints +6 @ Colts -6 Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em) Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em) Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5 Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1 Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3 Patriots -5 @ Jets +5 Eagles -3.5 @ Packers +3.5 Steelers -4 @ Browns +4 Titans +6 @ Jaguars -6 Bears +6 @ Chargers -6 Lions +3 @ Raiders -3 Bucs +6.5 @ Seahawks -6.5 Giants +4 @ Cowboys -4 Ravens +3 @ Bengals -3 Cardinals +3 @ 49ers -3 Super Bowl line (2008) NFC +6.5 vs. AFC -6.5 MySportsbook is a large, publicly traded company with strong financial backing.
