HOROSCOPES
Aries: Today is an 8.
Your life gets a lot easier, starting now, and it'll be a lot more fun, too. You'll have opportunities to travel, once especially you figure out where you'll get the money. Ask somebody who owes it to you, for starters.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
You're a little stronger than usual, so push for something you want. How about a little extra spending cash? Refinance the house, for example, and pay off a few bills. You could improve your current situation, but only if you persevere. Be bold.
Gemini : Today is a 7.
Anticipate change and plan for it. First, finalize an old project to get it out of the way. Do something that's going to save you the most money. Remember to be careful about what you say — and what you don't say, too.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You and your friends could make some good decisions about what needs to be done next. Stop talking and take action. You're getting into unfamiliar territory, but that's OK. You're adaptable. Talk them into trying something new.
Leo: Today is a 6.
You get luckier in love, starting now. You'll find it easier to win at games, too. That's the coming theme, but it may not be here yet. Make work your first priority. Relax later, like tomorrow.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
It's about time for you to fix things up at home. In order to do that, you may have to make a big mess first. That may be why you've put it off. Well, you may not be able to do that much longer.
During the next few weeks, you'll discover interesting things. You may solve a mystery that's haunted you for years. Think about the questions that you want to ask, but wait until tomorrow to ask them.
Libra: Today is a 7.
Scorpio: Today is a 7.
Make a decision involving your partner soon. That will clear your head, so you can move on to other topics. Shake the hand or sign the papers, and get that out of the way. Having a good, solid person on your side will minimize your risk.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
You're in line for some big changes, mostly in your favor. You're the whistle-blower. You'll find out interesting information, so use it wisely. Chances like this don't come often. Take your time and do it right.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
Your hopes, dreams and fears will be activated for the next few weeks. Luckily you have a good sense of humor. You might want to team up with another person who brings out that side of your character. It's always easy to tackle tough assignments with humor.
Pisces: Today is a 7.
You're going through a transitional phase. You've had it pretty rough during the past few weeks. You've come through that, and now you'll get a break. All of a sudden, you have a whole team on your side. Think about it and figure out what to do next.
Focus your attention. Study something that will help you advance your career. You'll find it's easy to do that, in some ways, during the next few weeks. In other ways, it'll be quite difficult. Figure out where you're going, first.

Gretzky can't picture wearing skates soon
HOCKEY
TORONTO — Wayne Gretzky may return to the NHL one day, but it won't be as a player.
And right now, he doesn't even want to think about a future in hockey.
When I met, I knew I needed to take some time away," he said
Gretzky: Will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame tonight
Saturday night
Saturday night, after participating in the ceremonial face-off at the Hockey Hall of Fame game.
"I played hockey for 36 years and I loved every minute of it, and I poured everything I had into the game," he said.
"I think that I really used up every part that it took to be a hockey
player, and I just needed a break."
He'll be inducted into the hall tonight along with former referee Andy Van Hellom and former referee-in-chief Scotty Morrison.
Gretzky doesn't even own a pair of skates these days. The last ones he wore, last April, are part of the large Gretzky exhibit in the hall.
"Eventually, somewhere, sometime, I might get back on skates," he said. "When that'll be, I don't know. Right now, I just don't feel like getting dressed."
D.C. United wins third soccer championship
MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER
FOXBORO, Mass. — Rain or shine,
D.C. United is the Major League Soccer champion.
Three years after overcoming a torrential rain and a two-goal deficit beating the Los Angeles Galaxy in the
Jaime Moreno scored first, and Washington made it 2-0 when goalkeeper Kevin Hartman badly misplayed a ball in front and passed it to Ben Olsen for a virtual empty-netter. Olsen was picked as the game's Most Valuable Player.
inaugural MLS Cup, the United won the rematch 2-0 on Sunday for their third title in the league's four-year history.
Hartman may still have been a bit foggy from getting kicked in the head by Moreno while making a nice save minutes earlier. The Galaxy played most of the game without captain Robin Fraser, the MLS defender of the year, who broke his collarbone after being pushed from behind by Roy Lassiter in the seventh minute.
Coach says farewell after Texas Tech win
LUBOCK, Texas — Reserve quarterback Kiff Kingsbury found himself in an old-fashioned quarterback shootout with Oklahoma's Josh Heupel.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Luckily, Kingsbury had more bullets.
Luckily, Kingsbury had more bullets. Kingsbury threw for 259 yards and three touchdowns, including the deciding one, as Texas Tech defeated Oklahoma 38-28 Saturday.
The win served as Spike Dykes' farewell as Texas Tech coach. He announced his retirement immediately after the game.
With 7:20 left in the third quarter, and Oklahoma leading 21-16, Tech's Kyle Shipley rammed into quarterback Josh Heupel at the Sooner's 25 and the ball went bouncing backward.
Several players on both teams tried to pounce on the ball, until Tech's Kevin Curtis finally recovered it at the Oklahoma 1. A quarterback sneak by Kingsbury gave Tech a 24-21 lead with 4:39 left in the quarter.
OXFORD, Miss. — Quincy Carter threw for 349 yards and Hap Hines kicked four field goals to lead No. 21 Georgia to a 20-17 victory against No. 16 Mississippi on Saturday.
Georgia (7-3, 5-3, Southeastern Conference) controlled most of the game but had to turn to Hines when they got close to the goal. His 48-yarder for the winning points came with 5:24 left.
Bulldogs beat Rebels with four field goals
The Bultdogs rolled up 456 yards of offense to 316 for the Rebels (7-3, 4-3), and had the ball nearly twice as long (39:30 to 20:24).
Carter completed 26 of 41 passes.
His one touchdown came on 4th-and-goal from the Ole Miss 3 when he hit Terrence Edwards for the score.
Carter then threw a 2-point conversion pass to Michael Grey tying the game at 17-17 with 8:25 left.
Hines also hit from 51, 27 and 23 yards, tying a school record for field goals in a game.
PRO BASKETBALL
Hecklers taunt player by booing, chanting
OAKLAND, Calif. — The anger and bitterness from Latrell Sprewell's last meeting with P.J. Carlesimo surfaced again two years later. And Sprewel wouldn't even meet his former coach halfway.
Carlesimo had expressed hopes of shaking hands with Sprewell during pregame introductions, but Sprewell stayed by the New York Knicks basket, and the Golden State Warriors coach was left standing by himself at mid court, before finally returning to the bench.
Sprewell took the game's first shot and missed badly, with one fan yelling "Nice shot, Spree!" Fans booed each time Sprewell touched the ball.
Before the game, Sprewell was greeted by cheers, applause and
chants of "Spreel, Spreel" upon taking the floor Saturday night for pregame warmups. But he ignored a child who sought his autograph by dangling his old Golden State Warriors Jersey over a railing.
Sprewell, facing Carlosimo for the first time since choking the Warriors coach in a fit rage at a team practice, stopped taking his practice shots for a moment, turned toward the heckler and told the fan to shut up and used an expletive.
TENNIS
Davenport dominates Hingis in title rematch
NEW YORK — Lindsay Davenport played her game to perfection Sunday, dominating the world's No. 1 player winning the season-ending Chase Championships.
Taking charge from the opening stroke, Davenport overpowered Martina Hingis 6-4, 6-2 to reverse the outcome of last year's Chase Championships title match between the same players.
"I wanted to be really aggressive, to go
The final game was a perfect
Davenport: Overpowered Hingis with aggressive play
example.
Serving for the match, Davenport began with a wide ace. Then Hingis badly misplayed the next serve. The 6-foot-21/2 Californian closed the match with her eighth and ninth aces.
This was the second straight week Davenport had faced
Hingis in a title match. And for the second straight week, it was Davenport who walked off a winner.

Sloppy play doesn't keep Jayhawks from winning
Continued from page 1B
"We have worked zero on a zone offense," he said.
What they had worked on in practice, such as bounce passes and fundamentals. Williams said he did not see.
"I'm a perfectionist, and I want us to do the things we do in practice, and right now we're not doing that," he said.
There were several bright spots in an overall frustrating game for the Jayhawks. Junior Kenny Gregory continued to sizzle like he had in the preseason, lightup up the Stags for a game-
high 19 points and ripping down eight rebounds. Bradford chipped in 13 points in six of-seven shooting and dished out a team-high six assists. Luke Axtell got on track from the outside, knocking in his first three-pointer as a Jayhawk with 11:41 left.
And in their first official game, the freshman continued to shine.
Stealing the first-half show, Nick Collison, Kirk Hinrich and Drew Gooden posted solid numbers and played significant minutes.
Collison, who found out that he would start at power forward shortly before
tipoff, scored 10 points and grabbed nine rebounds.
Hinrich, who saw his minutes increase when sophomore Jeff Boschese slightly sprained his right ankle, finished with eight points and five assists.
And Gooden, who was the first man to jump off of the Kansas bench, scored 11 points, grabbed five rebounds and swatted two shots, all while playing to the crowd with his dunking, passing and arm-waving.
Williams said the sloppy play was something he had been afraid of because of the competition the
Jayhawks faced in the preseason but that he would take the win and work on improving the team.
"It wasn't the prettiest thing I've looked at to say the least," Williams said. "But I told the guys in the locker room, it's a 'W' and we've got to understand that, but we've got to get a heck of a lot better."
Kansas' next game will be at 11 p.m. Thursday against the Georgia Bulldogs at the Great Alaska Shootout in Anchorage, Alaska.
