Hilliard, Tyree retire as Giants
Football Betting Lines
07/30/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former New York Giants receivers Ike Hilliard and David Tyree each signed contracts this week to retire as members of the organization.
Hilliard played in 98 games, starting 92, during his career with the Giants from 1997-2004. He then signed with Tampa Bay and played his final four NFL seasons with the Buccaneers.
Tyree spent most of his tenure with the Giants as a special teams standout, but will always be remembered for making the acrobatic catch in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLII against New England that led to the winning score in a 17-14 victory over the previously-unbeaten Patriots.
"I know it means a lot more to me now...and I don't think that I had the full understanding of the true depth of what occurred and I think that the more I am removed from it the more I appreciate it," Tyree said of the 32-yard reception, a catch he made with the ball lodged against his helmet while falling to the ground on 3rd-and-4.
Tyree never played another game for the Giants after the Super Bowl. He spent five years with the club from 2003 through 2007, earning a Pro Bowl nod as a special teams player in 2005, but missed the entire 2008 campaign with an injury and the Giants released him in September of 2009.
Baltimore signed Tyree last October and he played 10 games with the Ravens, mostly on special teams.
Hilliard was the seventh overall pick of the 1997 draft and ranks fifth in Giants history with 368 receptions. He is also eighth in club annals with 4,630 yards and tied for 11th with 27 touchdown catches.
"Being a Giant was obviously more special to me than anything in my professional career, with no disrespect to my four years in Tampa," said Hilliard.
Hilliard, who helped the Giants reach the Super Bowl after the 2000 season, is currently the receivers coach with the United Football League's Florida Tuskers.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
