Chargers' Jackson suspended three games

Football Betting Lines

07/13/2010 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - San Diego Chargers wide receiver Vincent Jackson has been suspended three games by the NFL for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

The Chargers sent out a press release posting saying Jackson will miss the first three games of the regular season, meaning he won't be eligible to play until the October 3 home contest against Arizona. Jackson is eligible to participate in all preseason practices and games.

The 27-year-old Jackson has twice been convicted for driving under the influence and pleaded guilty to the most recent charge in February.

Jackson is an unsigned restricted free agent and has been threatening to sit out the first half of the season in an attempt to improve his bargaining position with the team, though it appears the Chargers are not ready to meet his contract demands.

He started all 15 games he played in last season, catching 68 passes for 1,167 yards and nine touchdowns to establish career-highs in each category.

During his five seasons in the league, all with San Diego, Jackson has made 198 grabs for 3,400 yards and 25 scores.

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.
