The Washington Redskins have too many talented players and too many creative coaches to lose to the building-from-scratch Minnesota Vikings. It shouldn't come down to a 48-yard John Hall field goal attempt to tie the game in the final 20 seconds, not at home in the season opener.

FOXBOROUGH -- The Revolution did not want to back into the playoffs. They went on the offensive early in a 3-1 win over the Colorado Rapids last night at Gillette Stadium, scoring on a fourth-minute penalty kick, then converting the clinching goal by Jose Manuel Abundis in his first MLS game.
