07/10/2010 - Joliet, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Elliott Sadler said he does not plan to return to Richard Petty Motorsports for the 2011 Sprint Cup Series season.

Sadler spoke with the media on Friday at Chicagoland Speedway. The 35-year-old driver said that he doesn't fit in the racing organization's future plans.

"At this moment, I do not expect at all to be back with this organization," he said. "I'm okay with that, because I'm a huge fan of Richard Petty's. He deserves to be a part of this sport for a long time. He brings a lot to this sport as far as the fans are concerned."

Sadler did not indicate what his plans are for the future, but said he recently has spoken with some teams.

"I feel really good in the area my career is going next year," he said. "I've had a lot of good talks with a couple of different car owners during the last two months. We'll see where it takes us. I should know something here in the next month or month and a half on what my future will be for next year."

Prior to the start of the 2009 season, Sadler signed a contract extension with RPM to remain as driver of the No.19 car through the remainder of this year.

He has three career Cup victories, but has not won since September 2004 when he drove for Robert Yates Racing. He has finished no better than 22nd in points since 2005.

Currently 28th in the standings, Sadler's best finish after 18 races this season is 17th, which came last month at Sonoma, CA. He will start 16th in Saturday's 400 mile race at Chicagoland.

Earlier this week, RPM named Todd Parrott as the new crew chief for Sadler's team. Parrott previously served as his crew chief at Yates from 2003-05. He led Sadler to a ninth-place finish in the inaugural championship Chase in '04.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
