Bears release CB Vasher

Football Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - Lake Forest, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bears released long-time cornerback Nathan Vasher on Wednesday.

Vasher, who was a fourth-round pick by the Bears in 2004, has spent the last six seasons in Chicago. He signed a contract extension in 2007 that ran through 2012.

The 28-year-old struggled in recent seasons, playing in just 12 games in 2007-08 due to groin and wrist injuries before starting a career-low two contests in 2009. Vasher recorded only 13 tackles and one interception in limited action last season.

Vasher's best campaign came in 2005, when he earned a Pro Bowl selection after recording eight interceptions in 16 games. He also set an NFL record for longest play in league history -- a record that has since been broken -- when he returned a missed field goal 108 yards for a touchdown in 2006.

The release comes a day after the Bears signed cornerback Tim Jennings, who had spent the previous four seasons with Indianapolis. In 73 career games with Chicago, Vasher has 19 interceptions and 28 passes defensed.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.

Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend.  Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
