It's a major reason why New England and Houston will face off for the MLS Cup title for the second consecutive season (Sunday, ABC, noon).

The Patriots are serious about loading up for another Super Bowl run. They're so single-minded that they were willing to take character-challenged University of Miami safety Brandon Meriweather in Saturday's first round, and follow it up by dealing on Sunday for one of the league's leading enigmas, Moss.Sun, 29 Apr 2007 16:29:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/04/01/china/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/04/01/china/index.htmlEditor's Note: The NFL officially announced the cancellation of its preseason game in China on Monday.Sun, 01 Apr 2007 20:28:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/03/23/interview.livingto100/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/03/23/interview.livingto100/index.htmlDr. Thomas Perls is the founder and director of the New England Centenarian Study, the largest study of centenarians and their families in the world.

As the players sat glumly in their RCA Dome locker room at halftime of the AFC Championship Game, reeling from a first half in which they'd fallen behind 21-6 to the New England Patriots, coach Tony Dungy strode among them, delivering a message that even the team's biggest star had trouble swallowing. "I'm telling you, this is our game," Dungy proclaimed, fixing his eyes on quarterback Peyton Manning, whose playoff struggles mirrored Dungy's own.

The Bears are 14-1 in the past 15 games in which Jones carries at least 20 times. Last week against Seattle, Jones ran for two touchdowns, becoming the first Bears rusher to do that in a playoff game since Walter Payton in 1979. Look for the Bears to feed the ball to Jones and Cedric Benson, limiting the impact the erratic Grossman can have on the game.Fri, 19 Jan 2007 16:32:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/michael_silver/01/18/patriots/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/michael_silver/01/18/patriots/index.htmlHe had just arrived in America's Finest City, and as Richard Seymour sat in the bus that transported the New England Patriots to their hotel in La Jolla last Friday night, the veteran defensive end felt mighty fine about his team's prospects against the top-seeded San Diego Chargers.Thu, 18 Jan 2007 16:42:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/01/16/playoffs/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/01/16/playoffs/index.htmlNEW ORLEANS -- Football etiquette. What is it? I really don't know anymore. Is it simple joy to imitate another player's sack dance, or is it shoving it in the sacker's face?

Indy-New England has become the premiere rivalry of the 21st century, although it hasn't been an even one. Colts quarterback Peyton Manning has done little in the last two games to shed his label as a postseason underachiever and no one gives him more trouble than the Pats. Meanwhile, New England quarterback Tom Brady is coming off another miraculous performance in the divisional playoffs and now stands 12-1 all-time in the postseason, including 6-1 away from Foxboro.Mon, 15 Jan 2007 04:23:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/01/14/playoffs/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/peter_king/01/14/playoffs/index.htmlI could write about the New England-San Diego game forever, and I just might dwell on them a little longer than usual before I get to the other playoff winners and losers.Sun, 14 Jan 2007 23:54:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/don_banks/01/14/snap.judgments.divisional/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/don_banks/01/14/snap.judgments.divisional/index.htmlCHICAGO -- Gone, gone, gone.

New England's victory on Sunday was a 23-16 game with 10 minutes left, and Tom Brady, the best quarterback most of us will ever see, had to convert a huge third-and-eight to prevent the Jets from having one last chance to make a game of it. Then, of course, the roof caved in, and New England romped 37-16.Mon, 08 Jan 2007 01:53:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/don_banks/01/07/jets.patriots/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/don_banks/01/07/jets.patriots/index.htmlFOXBORO, Mass. -- Greatness is no longer part of the equation in New England, home of those three shiny Lombardi Trophies that the Patriots love to display anywhere on almost anything.

It shouldn't come as a surprise. For a large number of retirees, easy access to cultural events and educational opportunities has always been at least as important as year-round sunshine and well-groomed golf courses. And a collegiate environment has even more appeal in the new era of retirement, in which it's increasingly important to continue expanding your skills and knowledge base well beyond traditional retirement age. Many universities have responded by creating academic courses specifically for seniors. A decade ago, only a few dozen colleges offered such programs; today more than 300 institutions do. Other schools allow seniors to audit classes at little or no cost, fund community programs for older folks and even build housing for them. ...Mon, 12 Dec 2005 21:39:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/moneymag_archive/2005/11/01/8358882/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/moneymag_archive/2005/11/01/8358882/index.htmUntil recently, anyone over 60 spotted around a university campus was presumed to be either a professor or an aging alum riding a nostalgia trip.
