Altidore among seven added to U.S. Gold Cup teamSoccer Betting Lines07/02/2009 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jozy Altidore was among seven players added to the United States' Gold Cup roster, a change allowed by CONCACAF for any team also playing in the FIFA Confederations Cup. Forward Conor Casey, midfielders Ricardo Clark, Benny Feilhaber and Sacha Kljestan, defender Jonathan Bornstein and goalkeeper Brad Guzan - all members of the Confederations Cup team - will also be eligible for selection during the Gold Cup. The U.S. will not have all seven players present for each Gold Cup match, with only 18 players on the 30-man roster eligible for each match. "Due to our involvement in the Confederations Cup, CONCACAF decided to expand our eligible pool of players for the Gold Cup," U.S. coach Bob Bradley said. "At times during the tournament, we may integrate these seven players with our core roster that was announced last week." The U.S. plays Grenada on July 4 at 9 p.m. (ET), Honduras on July 8 at 9 p.m., and Haiti on July 11 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., at 7 p.m. The original 23-man roster already carried over four players from the FIFA Confederations Cup squad in Freddy Adu, Charlie Davies, Heath Pearce and Luis Robles. The Gold Cup roster also includes the return of regular starters Steve Cherundolo and Brian Ching from injury. The U.S. is seeking to become the second team to win three consecutive Gold Cups, having claimed the crown in 2005 and 2007. Mexico won three consecutive titles from 1993 to 1998. The Americans finished second at the Confederations Cup, upsetting No. 1 Spain in the semifinals before losing 3-2 to Brazil in the final. Following is the complete U.S. roster (with club team in parentheses): Goalkeepers: Jon Busch (Chicago Fire), Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Troy Perkins (IK Start), Luis Robles (FC Kaiserslautern). Defenders: Jonathan Bornstein (Chivas USA), Steve Cherundolo (Hannover 96), Jimmy Conrad (Kansas City Wizards), Clarence Goodson (IK Start), Jay Heaps (New England Revolution), Chad Marshall (Columbus Crew), Michael Parkhurst (FC Nordsjaellands), Heath Pearce (Hansa Rostock). Midfielders: Davy Arnaud (Kansas City Wizards), Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake), Colin Clark (Colorado Rapids), Ricardo Clark (Houston Dynamo), Sam Cronin (Toronto FC), Brad Evans (Seattle Sounders), Benny Feilhaber (Aarhus), Stuart Holden (Houston Dynamo), Sacha Kljestan (Chivas USA), Logan Pause (Chicago Fire), Robbie Rogers (Columbus Crew). Forwards: Freddy Adu (AS Monaco), Jozy Altidore (Villarreal), Conor Casey (Colorado Rapids), Brian Ching (Houston Dynamo), Kenny Cooper (FC Dallas), Charlie Davies (Hammarby IF), Santino Quaranta (D.C.

Super Bowl XLIV OddsSuper Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds. Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44. Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season. That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason. Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium. After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10. The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1). To see a complete list of all the team's odds to win Super Bowl XLIV, check below.
