Puerto Rico Open washed out by heavy rain

03/11/2010 -
Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The first round of the Puerto Rico
Open was washed out Thursday by another round of heavy rain that left the
Trump International course unplayable.
Only 18 players in a full PGA Tour field teed off before play was suspended at
7:19 a.m. local time. After a six-hour delay, the decision was made to
postpone the round for the day.
It will resume Friday morning at 7:15 a.m. (6:15 a.m. ET) with preferred lies
in effect.
The PGA Tour said that six inches of rain had fallen by 2 p.m. local time.
Five inches of precipitation fell on the club last weekend and it received
nearly a half-inch earlier this week.
Skip Kendall was one of only nine players to finish a hole before the weather
stoppage. Kendall eagled the par-four 10th, holing a seven-iron from 159 yards
to take the early lead at two-under.
It was the only hole Kendall played. He couldn't see the ball go in because
the rain storms made it too dark.
Germany's Alex Cejka birdied No. 1 and five players made par on their only
hole. Harrison Frazar was the only player to finish two holes and he was one-
over par.
Michael Bradley is the defending champion after he held off Brett Quigley and
Jason Day last year for his third PGA Tour victory.
Only three of the top 100 players in the world rankings are in Puerto Rico.
Most of the best players are competing in the WGC-CA Championship in Florida.
NOTES: Friday will mark the fifth time this season that a tournament will
feature preferred lies...It was the first time in the Puerto Rico Open's
three-year history that there was a weather suspension.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.
As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.
Bet 2010 Super Bowl Odds
The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.
Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).
But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.
Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.
Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1
Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2
New York Giants - 9 - 2
Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).
Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.
So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.
And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.
They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.
Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.
But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.
Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.
Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.
Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.
Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?
Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.
In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.
Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.
Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.
The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.
The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
