FOXBOROUGH - When it was all over and his 100th win was finally in the books, Revolution goalkeeper Matt Reis tried his best to be as ho-hum about it as possible. The milestone had been 15 years in the making. The three straight losses the Revolution were riding going into Wednesday night's matchup with the Colorado Rapids only made it feel longer. But when it was finally real, after he had stopped six shots in the Revolution's 2-1 win, Reis acknowledged the mark, then immediately tried to move past it. "Kind of a relief," he said.
