Giggs to play another year at United

Soccer Betting Lines

02/10/2012 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that midfielder Ryan Giggs will return to the club for another season after signing a one-year contract extension.

The 38-year-old Giggs made his debut for United in 1991 and is the only player to have scored at least one goal in every season in the Premier League era.

"Ryan is a marvelous player," Ferguson said. "In many ways, he epitomizes all my teams here at United; he has constantly reinvented himself, adapted to the changing nature of the game and retained that desire and hunger for success."

The former Wales international will be entering his 23rd season at Old Trafford next year, but he remains hungry for more trophies.

"When I signed my first contract, I never thought I'd be able to play at United for 22 years, but I feel good and I know I can still contribute to keeping the team pushing for honors," said Giggs.

"Winning the club's 19th title was a great feeling but this club is all about what we do next and I'm really pleased I can be part of that."

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
