Colorado Rapids 2-1 Dallas: I can’t believe it, but I never did post a comment on the game last Sunday, and it was a beaut’. The Rapids used their normal relentless style of play, but also slipped one in in the 6th just for good measure. If Tom keeps scoring like that, the [...]

Throw all the trash you like, Salt Lakers. The Rocky Mountain Cup is coming back to Colorado.
Let me start by offering a formal apology for predicting yesterday that Salt Lake would score a goal. That was shameful and, in retrospect, I don’t know what I was thinking. I will put forth great [...]

If you had told me before the game that a Rapids player would make a game losing error, literally the last person I would have guessed would have been Ugo Ihemelu.
Other then the Ugo error, the Rapids continued pretty much every trend from their past few games. They played good defense (exceptional in the [...]
So Much Talent, Only Eleven Spots

One of the best problems a soccer team can have is having too many good players to field them all. That, and the ability to adapt the line-up to different opponents, is a sign of a good soccer team. The Rapids have both.
The biggest question on my mind as we await the game [...]
Colorado Rapids 2-0 DC United
By: Kyle | No Comments
How good are the Rapids? On Sunday, the Rapids outplayed DC United by any measure, and I still think they underperformed. I really think they could have scored three or four if they had just finished on a few of the opportunities they had in the first half. That’s how good they [...]
How’s That DP Slot Treating You, DC?
By: Kyle | 2 Comments
Sometimes I think people talk about sports by saying really simple things in an overcomplicated way. For example: the Rapids game versus United on Sunday really comes down to which team shows up. In most of their games, the Rapids proved to be a formidable club capable of scoring a lot of goals. [...]
Post-Game Musings, My Essential Educability and the Extent to Which I’m Useful

I think I have a plan now: barring too much ____ I will post three times a week - before the game, after the game, and, once a week, I’ll probably post something like what appears below - e.g. a big check-up on all the Rapids news I can find. I’ve been doing a [...]
Feeling All Right, Rapids Fans? Wait…It’ll Change…
By: Jeff | 1 Comment
Now, I really hate to do this, but I’m reading what I’m reading. The most for which you can hold me accountable is what I’m reading into things. Here goes…
- Remember that somewhat recent loss to the Bermudan National Team (no? Here ya go!)? If that loss didn’t leave you feeling [...]
The Rapids Attack! An Offensive Review
By: Jeff | No Comments
…hmm, that title isn’t quite what I’m going for…and I can’t link to some of the statistical stuff cited below because MLSnet.com was gummed up and lame at time of typing.
Today, we get to the failing that doomed the Colorado Rapids’s 2007: namely, the ever-sputtering offense. If Toronto FC hadn’t suffered eternities of incompetence [...]
Rapids’ Bermudan Banana Peel
By: Jeff | No Comments
Last Friday (or whenever March 14 was), the Colorado Rapids lost to the Bermudan National Team, the same team, mind, the New England Revolution beat 8-1 on aggregate back in February. The 2-1 loss doesn’t make for the happiest of reading for Rapids fans, but, hey, Herculez Gomez played and scored…that’s some kind of [...]
