Real's Pellegrini given vote of confidence
Soccer Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
Madrid, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Madrid Technical Director Jorge Valdano
has handed the dreaded vote of confidence to coach Manuel Pellegrini after the
Spanish giants were knocked out of the Champions League by Lyon on Wednesday.
Real could only manage a 1-1 home draw in the second leg of its last 16 series
and was eliminated on 2-1 aggregate. Real failed to make the quarterfinals of
the competition for the sixth successive season.
However, Valdano said after the setback: "We will respect him because we
believe in his work, although we know that the coach of Madrid is always
accompanied by controversy.
"He has a contract for next season and the plan is that he will continue being
our coach. The season hasn't finished and there are still things to fight
for."
Pellgrini also vowed to battle on to try and ensure a successful end to the
campaign, adding: "I'm not going to resign, I'm not going to quit the fight.
"Of course we're all very disappointed because we wanted to go far in this
competition, but I've never thought about resigning.
"I see myself in exactly the same situation as I saw myself yesterday, though
obviously with the bitter disappointment of the failure and being knocked out.
"My future depends only on the board, the only thing I can do is continue
working as until now."

Oddsmakers 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.
Bet on NFL Football
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.
