By: Clint |It isn’t just the big boys who are winning this year - the Rapids reserves are now 3-0-1 after spanking the Galaxy, 3-0, at The Dick. Jacob Peterson added another goal to the two he scored midweek while Omar Cummings assisted on two goals and earned the team a penalty in the first half. Keel [...]
Colorado Wins While I’m Out of State
By: Clint |I gave my tix to my pal from the dog park and spent half the day at Denver Int’l Airport instead of seeing the Rapids beeaaat LA, 1-0. Looking at the recap, I would think it was a chippy match what with an LA ejection and 5 cautions for Colorado. From Laurie’s recap, it sounded [...]
Rapids vs. RSL for 56th Time this Year
By: Clint |Tonight, the biggest game of the season is played, with millions of eyes transfixed on the action, and fans across the globe anxiously cheering on their team to what will be a glorious victory or a humiliating defeat.
And the Rapids will host RSL in some weird tournament match.
Now I know I’m not the most sophisticated, [...]
Kroenke and Arsenal - Yet Another F’in Meeting???
By: Clint |From various sources today:
Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood has had a change of heart and will reportedly meet with American investor Stanley Kroenke to discuss his interest in the Gunners.
Hill-Wood, 71, claimed Kroenke knew “sweet FA about our football” after reacting in hostile fashion to news that the US sports magnate had upped his stake in [...]
What on Earth do the Rapids Have to Do with Barcelona?
By: Clint |Well, for a time both WERE the head of their respective tables and now are not (well, kind of. La Liga rules are a little American-ish in that regard). And then there’s… well… I guess there is…
Ok, ok. I guess there isn’t much we have in common. But still, I’m bored of 1-1 games, so [...]
Has Anyone Been Able to Vote for the MLS All-Stars Today?
By: Clint |I read the press release for it but I can’t find a link anywhere on mlsnet. And if I can’t find the link, how on earth am I supposed to vote for Stephen Keel?
Is Anyone Watching the UEFA Cup Final?
By: Clint |Does anyone even care about the NIT tournament of European club competition? I’m watching and continue to be impressed with how much more enjoyable watching a match with two teams from either Spain, Germany, or the Netherlands involved is compared with teams from Italy, England (though I love em, the style just isn’t as fun [...]

Here’s The Third Edict for When I Become King of MLS
By: Clint |Ok, this comes from the future prime minister of MLS, Isaiah, but it sounds so good I’ll have him thrown in the dungeon (aka, Rice-Eccles Stadium) and take full credit for the idea.
I think that the clock should be changed. Can’t we just stop it when the ball goes out of bounds or a person [...]
Here’s My Second Edict for When I Become King of MLS
By: Clint |(and just in case you don’t get it - these ‘king of MLS’ posts are not to be taken seriously)
thou shall never call offsides again.
On day two, I’d bring all the refs into my gold-plated office in the sky and announce that, effective immediately, there would no longer be any need to call offsides. Ever.
That’s [...]
