Portis in uniform against Cowboys
Football Betting Lines
11/16/2008 - Landover, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Redskins running back Clinton Portis will give his injured knee a go on Sunday night, as he is in uniform in Washington's NFC East battle with the Dallas Cowboys.
Portis, officially listed as questionable on the injury report, is dealing with a knee sprain he incurred during the Redskins' 23-6 home loss to Pittsburgh on November 3.
Redskins head coach Jim Zorn had termed Portis as having a "50/50" chance to suit up on Monday. But Portis revealed on Tuesday that he has a second-degree MCL sprain and spent the week out of practice.
The running back came into the week the second-leading rusher in the NFL this season with 995 yards. Only Minnesota's Adrian Peterson (1,100) has more. Portis has also rushed for seven touchdowns, and caught 18 passes for 150 yards.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
