Panama City, Panama (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A first-half goal from Graham Zusi was enough for the U.S. men's national team to collect its second 1-0 win in four days, this time in a friendly against Panama. A stoppage-time goal from Ricardo Clark on Saturday against Venezuela gave the Americans a win in their first match of 2012. However, the team only had to wait nine minutes before Zusi fired them into the lead on Wednesday while Jurgen Klinsmann's men had to play the final 35 minutes of the match with 10 men after Geoff Cameron picked up a red card.
Cameron received his marching orders in the 52nd minute when a long ball from the back was tracked down by Perez on the edge of the penalty area, only for Cameron to bring him down from behind.
The first came on a header from six yards that missed the left post by inches, while the Panama striker fired wide of the net from close range when he should have scored in the 86th minute.
Klinsmann will take his team to Italy for its next match on February 29 before beginning World Cup qualifying in June.
Tests conducted Thursday "confirmed his three week layoff," Barca announced on its website.
London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - QPR acquired defender Nedum Onuoha from Manchester City on Thursday and signed him to a 4 1/2-year contract. Onuoha, 25, made his debut for City in 2004 and played 92 matches for the club, some of those under current QPR manager Mark Hughes. Onuoha was on loan with Sunderland last season and played 31 matches.
The former England Under-21 international can play center back or right back, and becomes the second defensive addition for QPR this week. QPR signed Taye Taiwo on loan earlier this week from AC Milan for the rest of the season.
QPR is 16th in the Premier League, just two points above the relegation zone.
Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Toronto FC signed defender Richard Eckersley on Thursday. Eckersley, 22, joined Toronto FC on loan from Burnley last April and played 23 matches for the Major League Soccer club. He started 22 of those matches, and also made six appearances in the CONCACAF Champions League.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
