Not a lot to say other than: that’s why we love Christian here in Colorado. The other good news is that Stevie seemed to know a bit better than the voters and started Christian AND Pablo. So the midfield started with Beckham, Gomez, Mastroeni, and Joseph. That gives any club in the [...]

Dallas 2-2 Colorado Rapids

Man, what a week: Great league games, SuperLiga, the All-Star game, and the U-23 – Senior Team match on Wednesday. The Rapids in fourth place isn’t quite as nice as I would like it to be going into the unofficial halfway point of the season, but at only three points back, it’s about the [...]

I could beat the dead horse of coastal bias, but that’s just the way the sports world works, so let’s skip to the good news: Pablo Mastroeni and Christian Gomez are officially All-Stars. Neither of them will start, but that’s how it is every year even though they are arguably the best central mids [...]

First off, I don’t want to hear any complaining from San Jose fans about Connor’s game tying goal. If we want to start talking about fouls, there were two or three goal preventing fouls by San Jose that weren’t even called.

As for the match itself, it [...]

“Hey, how should we display the new kit?”
“Beautiful women in skimpier versions of it?”
“Brilliant!”
Apparently that’s the kind of conversation that goes on over at Rapids’ headquarters. On the other hand, if my friends and I were in charge of this, we probably would have come up with the exact same idea.
Picture of the new [...]

Does anyone know who’s in charge over at the Rapids’ website? Check out this headline on the front page: Rapids completely destroy New York on Independence Day. They don’t seem to be to big on subtlety. You can’t really say they’re wrong, though.
Have you ever seen the And1 basketball competitions? They’re [...]

There seems to be some trepidation every time I tell someone I celebrate the Fourth of July at a soccer game. In a sense, I can understand this inclination. Fireworks on the Fourth, if they are to be associated with a sport, seems like they should be over a distinctly American sport, the [...]
