Ancelotti: Terry talk will not be distractionSoccer Betting Lines02/03/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carlo Ancelotti has dismissed suggestions that the lurid allegations threatening to engulf John Terry will lead to a loss of focus at Chelsea during the title run-in. The Blues were held to a 1-1 draw at relegation-threatened Hull City on Tuesday night as they failed to make the most of the game in hand over main title rivals Manchester United. Terry was again the center of attention after the Blues and England skipper was revealed as the player who had an affair with a teammate's ex-partner during a series of salacious weekend newspaper reports. Ancelotti confirmed after the match that Terry will be given time off should he require it. However, the Italian does not accept that Terry's personal problems will lead to a loss of focus at Stamford Bridge. "Nothing can disturb our concentration in this competition," said Ancelotti after seeing his side move two points clear of United at the top of the table. "I think that Chelsea are focused for every game. "Sometimes we play good football and sometimes we have more difficulty but the concentration is always on top. The atmosphere in the team is the same. No change." (Courtesy of sportbox.tv)

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year AwardsOddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite. Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award. Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1. Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award. Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1. All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY. A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
