Players, family mourn death of McNair
Football Betting Lines
07/11/2009 - Hattiesburg, MS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Several players were among a crowd of about 5,000 who attended a Saturday memorial service for NFL quarterback Steve McNair.
McNair, who was shot to death in what Nashville police say was a murder- suicide on July 4, was laid to rest in his native Mississippi.
The Red Green Coliseum on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi was the site of a public mourning for McNair. Among those in attendance was Brett Favre, Titans head coach Jeff Fisher and quarterback Vince Young, Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis and Chicago QB Jay Cutler.
"Steve was like a hero to me," said Young. "Heroes aren't supposed to die. He inspired me a whole lot. He has helped me on every decision I have made."
Earlier this week, Nashville police said McNair's death was a result of a murder-suicide and that he was shot while sleeping by his 20-year-old girlfriend, Sahel Kazemi, at a Nashville condominium.
After the memorial service, there was a private burial for McNair, a long-time Titans quarterback who spent 13 seasons in the NFL.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009
Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
