DC United 3-0 Colorado Rapids

By: Kyle | Comments 2 Comments

When you talk about the Rapids’ defense, you don’t always call them great, but you usually don’t call them sloppy. The goals themselves, particularly the first two, were pretty incredible, and it’s hard to fault them for not stopping those, but they just allowed way too many chances for DC. DC had 15 [...]

It’s finally happened. The Rapids have let go of their coach, Fernando Clavijo. Surprisingly, Gary Smith is going to take over for him on an interim basis, whatever that means.

Sunday: Colorado Rapids – Everton Toffees

By: Kyle | Comments 1 Comment

Man, it’s been a slow week; kind of a downer, really. Between that and the loss against Columbus which was more of a fist fight than a soccer game, if this were a bye week like originally scheduled, the only thing keeping me going would be the knowledge that the first football game of [...]
