10/07/2011 - Kansas City, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After months of speculation, Michael Waltrip Racing revealed on Friday that Clint Bowyer has inked a three-year agreement to drive the team's No.15 Toyota in the Sprint Cup Series, beginning in 2012.
Bowyer and team owner Michael Waltrip made the announcement at Kansas Speedway, the site of this weekend's 400-mile Sprint Cup race. Bowyer will join David Reutimann and Martin Truex Jr., making MWR a three-car operation full-time next year.
"Michael Waltrip Racing is a growing team that is hiring a lot of the right people and on the brink of breaking out," said Bowyer, who hails from nearby Emporia, KS. "I know I'm joining it at the right time."
MWR also announced that 5-Hour ENERGY will serve as primary sponsor for Bowyer's team.
Bowyer has driven for Richard Childress Racing in both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series since 2004. He won the Nationwide title three years ago.
The 32-year-old has been a full-time competitor in NASCAR's premier series since 2006, scoring four victories, 90 top-10 finishes and two pole positions in 210 starts. Bowyer qualified for the championship Chase in 2007, '08 and last year. He finished a career-best third in points in '07.
Bowyer missed out on this year's Chase. He is presently 13th in the point standings.
"This has been a very long summer, but I think for everyone involved, the best decision was made to be at Michael Waltrip Racing," he said. "I've been with one organization [RCR] for my entire Sprint Cup career, and leaving there was the hardest part of the decision. But now I'm ready to start the next chapter in my racing career."
MWR entered Sprint Cup competition at the start of the '07 season. The team has two race wins so far -- both from Reutimann.
"This is a watershed moment for our young organization," Waltrip said. "Clint is a proven winner and consistent Chase participant. He had a lot of options, and it makes me proud that Clint and 5-hour ENERGY chose to race with us."

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
