Despite fluctuating talent and personnel, the New England Patriots always seem to emerge as strong Super Bowl contenders every season.

What epitomized the New England Patriots in 2001, 2003 and 2004? It was their defense, yes, but it was also their running game.

It is obvious, though, that soccer hasn’t gained such widespread favor in the U.S. due to sports like basketball and baseball. Perhaps,…
The New England Revolution showed that they can compete with the upper-tier MLS teams, but in order for Jay Heaps’ squad to elevate its status as a true contender, the Revs must look to sign a talented, strong striker to fill the void that Juan Agudelo has left open.

Following a convincing 55-21 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago, the New England Patriots came off of their bye week with yesterday’s Monday Night Football game against Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. The Pats, though, were unable to keep their winning momentum alive, conceding a late touchdown pass that ultimately handed Carolina…
Quite a compelling 2013 season ended for the New England Revolution last week, as the young MLS squad significantly improved their standing from 2012 by jumping from 9th place to 3rd place in the Eastern Conference rankings.
