06/21/2007 - Den Bosch, The Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dutch qualifier Peter Wessels upset top-seeded Spaniard Tommy Robredo in Thursday's quarterfinal action at the grass-court Ordina Open, a final Wimbledon tune-up.

The world No. 7 Robredo succumbed to Wessels in 6-3, 6-3 fashion on a rainy day at Autotron Rosmalen.

Second-seeded Croat Ivan Ljubicic avoided an upset by outlasting Serbian Janko Tipsarevic 6-3, 6-7 (8-10), 6-3 on Day 5 here. Ljubicic's semifinal opponent on Friday will be Frenchman Julien Benneteau, who got past German qualifier Michael Berrer 7-6 (7-2), 7-5.

French qualifier Antony Dupuis was leading German Benjamin Becker 7-6 (7-2), 3-3 when the completion of their bout was suspended until Friday because of darkness.

Friday's other semi will pit the veteran Wessels against the Dupuis-Becker victor. Wessels is seeing his first ATP-level action since last year.

Wimbledon 2007 will commence Monday at the All England Club.

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.
