Report: Woods took pain medication day before crash

Golf Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiger Woods' wife told police her husband had not been drinking, but had taken pain medication the day before his early- morning car accident outside their Isleworth home, according to paperwork obtained by the Orlando Sentinel.

Investigative records obtained by the newspaper from the Florida Highway Patrol paint a clearer picture of the moments following Woods' Nov. 27 car crash, which touched off allegations and then an admission that the golfer was unfaithful to his wife.

The paperwork, according to the Sentinel, says that Elin Woods was not allowed to ride in the ambulance with her husband because the crew believed it was a domestic violence case.

The newspaper reported that officials uncovered no evidence to support that domestic violence had occurred. Woods said during a statement last month that "there has never been an episode of domestic violence in our marriage, ever."

The golfer was unconscious and laying on the pavement after his black SUV struck a neighbor's tree, according to the records. Neighbors brought him a blanket and pillow and his wife brought him a pair of socks.

Elin Woods told officers that she heard the crash and jumped into a golf cart to find it. She said she broke the vehicle's rear window and pulled her husband free. The paper said a golf club was found near the driver's door.

Elin Woods retrieved two bottles of pain pills while she waited for the ambulance to arrive to take her husband to the hospital, according to the report. She told an officer that the golfer had not been drinking, but had taken the pain medication Vicodin earlier.

A Windermere police officer told troopers he didn't smell alcohol on Tiger Woods or in the golfer's black Cadillac Escalade, the report says.

The FHP later tried to obtain the golfer's medical records to determine if he was under the influence of drugs or alcohol. After several attempts to get them at the hospital, they were told by an Assistant State Attorney that there was insufficient evidence for a subpoena, the report says.

Also in the report obtained by the paper:

- A Windermere officer saw no blood on Tiger Woods' face or clothes, but there was a cut on his lower lip, which left his mouth bloody.

- A lawyer for the golfer said he would supply troopers with video from the Woodses' security system, but never did after he said he had problems operating it.

- Troopers who arrived later in the day to interview the golfer and his wife about the incident were told by Elin Woods that her husband was sleeping and could not be awakened.

- Officers found no evidence of domestic violence in or around the house and spotted no bruises or scratches on Elin Woods.

Woods has not played competitively since the accident for which he was ticketed for careless driving and paid a $164 fine. But reports about a possible return in the next month or so have fueled speculations of his imminent comeback.

Football Betting Lines

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.

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.
