Dynamo reacquire Ching from Impact

Soccer Betting Lines

02/16/2012 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brian Ching's stay in Montreal is over before he even played a match for the expansion Impact.

Just three months after losing him in the expansion draft, the Houston Dynamo reacquired the forward Thursday for a conditional selection in the 2013 Major League Soccer SuperDraft.

The 33-year-old Ching has played for the Dynamo since 2006, helping the squad advance to three MLS Cup finals and win two titles. He is the all-time leading scorer in Houston history with 63 goals.

"I am very happy to have Brian back with the team," said Dynamo coach Dominic Kinnear. "This is a very important year for the Dynamo, and if anyone deserves to be involved with the team, it's Brian."

Ching led or tied for the team lead in goals in five consecutive seasons from 2007-11, with a career-high 13 in 2008. He was limited to 20 appearances last season, but still had five goals and helped the club reach the Cup final.

Houston lost the MLS Cup to the Los Angeles Galaxy, 1-0. The Dynamo won back- to-back-titles in 2006 and 2007.

The Dynamo were surprised to lose the longtime player in the expansion draft, and following a lot of rumors about his return to Houston, a deal was finally reached with the start of the season less than a month away.

Montreal will joins MLS this season as the league's 19th team.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
