Autoracing Betting Lines

07/16/2010 - Madison, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A power outage at Gateway International Raceway just outside St. Louis forced NASCAR to postpone the 200-mile Camping World Truck Series race until 1:30 p.m. (et) Saturday.

Shortly after Kevin Harvick won the pole for the CampingWorld.com 200, the outage occurred around the 1.25-mile track. The race was scheduled to begin just after 9:00 p.m. (et), but after a two-hour delay, NASCAR and track officials made the decision to postpone the event.

The Nationwide Series is scheduled to run a 250-mile race at Gateway Saturday night. Nationwide teams will practice in the morning and then qualify late in the afternoon.

Harvick claimed his first career truck pole after posting a lap of 133.325 m.p.h. The Sprint Cup Series regular has already won two truck events so far this season.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
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
