Report: Woods working with Fleischer on return

Golf Betting Lines

03/11/2010 - Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiger Woods may be returning to the PGA Tour in two weeks at the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, according to a report in the New York Post.

In a story Thursday, the Post credits "two sources in the golf community" with information that Ari Fleischer, the former press secretary to President George W. Bush, is working with Woods on a game plan on how to return to the tour.

That return appears to be at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in two weeks.

"They were in his living room this week going over a strategy for how to handle Bay Hill in two weeks," said one of the Post's sources.

"I would be shocked if he didn't play the Arnold Palmer," said the paper's other source.

Woods hasn't played on tour since the fall of 2009. His early-morning accident the day after Thanksgiving led to Woods admitting marital infidelity. He has been in a self-imposed break from golf.

According to the Post, Fleischer was brought in to help with the impending media blitz. Fleischer opened Ari Fleischer Sports Communications in 2008 and helped Mark McGwire with his confession of steroid use.

Woods held a 14-minute press session on Feb. 19 where he didn't answer any questions. That will not happen upon his return to the PGA Tour.

He has won the Arnold Palmer six times, including last year, when he beat Sean O'Hair by a shot with a dramatic birdie putt on the last hole.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
