09/01/2010 - Des Moines, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Drake University football team will play in the first American football game on the continent of Africa next year.
Drake, a member of the Missouri Valley Football Conference, will play an all- star team from Mexico, the CONADEIP All-Stars, in the inaugural Global Kilimanjaro Bowl on May 21, 2011, in Moshi, Tanzania, under the shadows of Mount Kilimanjaro.
The two teams will do much more than meet on the field. The trip will begin on May 17, and following two practices there will be a football clinic for local youth and a safari.
After the historic game, players from both Drake and the CONADEIP All-Stars will do community service projects. The primary project will be working at the Kitaa Hope Orphanage in Moshi, including the construction of an addition to the orphanage.
In addition, players and coaches from both teams will climb the 19,340-foot Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa. The teams will ascend the mountain by different routes and meet at the summit, where they will hoist their respective university and national flags.
"I am overwhelmed with excitement as this long time vision is now becoming a reality," Drake head football coach Chris Creighton said. "This trip allows for us to bring the game we love to a place and to a people who have never experienced it. This trip also provides a unique opportunity to serve those who are far less fortunate than we are and to hopefully make a positive difference. Finally, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro as a team will be one of the greatest challenges we will ever face."
Global Football, a Texas-based football events organization, is coordinating the trip. Drakes Mexican opposition will be selected from the CONADEIP Conference that will play an inaugural football season this fall.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
