03/18/2010 - Indian Wells, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray and Andy Roddick were among the top seeds to move on, while No. 2 seed Novak Djokovic was sent packing in Wednesday's fourth-round action at the upset-plagued $4.5 million BNP Paribas Open.
After World No. 1 Roger Federer was upset in third-round play on Tuesday, the second-seeded Djokovic was ousted by 20th-seeded Ivan Ljubicic, 7-5, 6-3 a day later. The veteran Croat sent the Serbian star packing in 1 hour, 44 minutes with the help of 13 aces and three service breaks.
Other top seeds competing at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden this week avoided a similar fate as third-seeded Spaniard Rafael Nadal defeated 15th-seeded American John Isner, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3; fourth-seeded Scot Andy Murray advanced, 6-2, 1-0 over Nicolas Almagro, who retired with a left ankle injury.
American seventh seed Andy Roddick got by Austria's Jurgen Melzer, the 22nd seed, 7-6 (7-5), 6-4.
Nadal, who beat Murray in last year's Indian Wells finale and titled here in 2007, will meet No. 19 Tomas Berdych in the quarterfinals after the Czech cruised past 29th-seeded Serb Viktor Troicki 6-1, 6-3.
Murray, this year's Aussie Open runner-up to Federer, will next match up with sixth-seeded Swede and last year's surprise French Open runner-up Robin Soderling, who downed No. 9 Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, 6-3, 6-4.
Meanwhile, the 27th seed Marcos Baghdatis, who took out Federer here on Tuesday, was taken out himself by the 18th-seeded Spaniard Tommy Robredo, 7-5, 0-6, 6-4. Robredo will face off against Roddick in the quarters.
Ljubicic's quarterfinal opponent will be 21st-seeded Argentine Juan Monaco, who overcame Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, 3-6, 6-2, 6-1 on the hardcourts here on Day 7.
This week's winner will collect $605,500.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
