CFL Hall of Fame coach Murphy passes away
Football Betting Lines
02/19/2012 - Regina, SK (The Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach and Hall of Fame member Cal Murphy passed away at the age of 79 on Saturday night.
He passed away in a hopsital in Regina after being admitted there earlier in February when he suffered broken ribs from a fall.
Murphy was a part of nine Grey Cup championship teams over his 24 years as a head coach, assistant coach and general manager in the Canadian Football League.
He was an assistant under Marv Levy in Montreal when that team won the Grey Cup in 1977 and was also an assistant with Edmonton when that team won five consecutive championships from 1978-82.
Murphy then went to Winnipeg to again become a head coach in 1983 and won the Grey Cup with the Bombers in 1984. He was general manager at Winnipeg when the team won the Cup in 1988 and 1990.
"Everyone in both the immediate, and extended, Blue Bomber family is deeply saddened by this news," said Winnipeg president Garth Buchko. "Cal was a great ambassador for our game and for Canadian football in Winnipeg and Manitoba."
He finished his coaching career in the CFL with Saskatchewan in 1999 and went on to coach teams in NFL Europe and the XFL.
Elected to the CFL Hall of Fame in 2004, he was serving as a scout for the NFL's Indianapolis Colts when he passed away.
"Cal Murphy lived and breathed and loved football -- and our league was so much better for it," said CFL commissioner Mark Cohon. "He was a fierce competitor, with a keen eye for talent, and an ability to mold great teams."

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009
Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
