Hall of Fame Game Marks the Onset of NFL season

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 5, 2010 -- London, Aug 5 2010
The Hall of Fame Game between the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals this Sunday will kick-start the NFL season. Although only diehard NFL fans will be excited for preseason, this game is generating higher interest for several reasons.

The hype over Terrell Owens joining the Bengals is a major highlight of the game. It will interest the football lovers to see his performance afield with Chad Ochocinco. Most importantly, he will be playing against his former team for the first time. The Hall of Fame inductees is another major draw card of the game, which include the likes of Russ Grimm, Rickey Jackson, Dick LeBeau, Floyd Little, John Randle, Jerry Rice, and Emmitt Smith.
It will also be interesting to see how the Cowboys will perform, as their injury-ridden roster is a major concern for them. Dez Bryant will be out until the regular season due to sprained ankle. Moreover, quarterback Tony Romo is also suffering pain in his arm, and is consequently cutting back on his throws during the practice sessions, although Romo is positive that he will perform well.

Perhaps the most important reason is the betting, as football has always been the most popular option when it comes to getting a little action on the game. LinesMaker has the Bengals 2.5 point favorite over the Cowboys, however, they report that nearly 75% of the betting volume has come in on the underdog Cowboys thus far. Even more lopsided is the lean on the total which is currently sitting at 32.5. Over 90% of the betting action by LinesMaker members has been on the over. The craze of football is evident from the fact that even though the football season is more than a month away, LinesMaker is already witnessing surprisingly heavy betting action on all the preseason matchups as well as week 1 games of the regular season.
