06/07/2010 - Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former NFL quarterback Daunte Culpepper has signed with the United Football League's Sacramento Mountain Lions.
The move will re-unite Culpepper with Dennis Green, who was Culpepper's head coach with the Minnesota Vikings. Green is now the head coach of the Mountain Lions, who are headed into the second UFL season this fall.
Culpepper, 33, played in eight games (five starts) for the Detroit Lions during the 2009 NFL season, completing 89-of-157 passes for 945 yards, with three touchdowns and six interceptions.
"My goal for this year was to get on the field and play football," said Culpepper. "When the opportunity came for me to sign with the UFL and play for coach Green in Sacramento I could not resist. I am impressed with his approach to the game and to his players."
The Vikings selected Culpepper with the 11th overall pick in the 1999 NFL Draft, and he spent his first seven seasons with Minnesota. He was a three- time Pro Bowl selection in his time with the Vikings, but bounced around the NFL after leaving the Vikings as he struggled with injuries.
In 105 career NFL games with the Vikings, Dolphins, Raiders and Lions, Culpepper threw for 24,153 yards and 149 touchdowns while completing 63 percent of his passes. Culpepper also ran for 2,652 yards and 34 touchdowns.

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.
