The Goats are Coming

By: Kyle | Comments No Comments

Chivas USA is not a bad club. At least they’re not a bad club like Houston and San Jose are bad clubs. They are superbly average. When Chicago’s or even Houston’s midfield is setting up an attack, I get nervous, but not so with Chivas USA. That is, with one exception: Kljestan. That kid [...]

Colorado Rapids 2-0 Real Salt Lake

By: Kyle | Comments 2 Comments

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 [...]

So Much Talent, Only Eleven Spots

By: Kyle | Comments 1 Comment

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 | Comments 1 Comment

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 [...]

Colin Clark on Altitude’s One-on-One

By: Kyle | Comments 1 Comment

For those of you local to Colorado, I just saw an interview with Colin Clark on One-on-One, Altitude’s interview show. The interview was okay, but it wasn’t particularly informative or earth-shattering, so really this is just an excuse to talk about how awesome Colin Clark is, how he would have been a contender for [...]

Rapids Salaries: The Highs, the Lows…the things that confuse you

By: Jeff | Comments 1 Comment

Just when I thought I could get away with one post today, the Major League Soccer Players’ Union goes and releases the salary numbers…commie bastards…
Having rambled way down below – they say people resort to verbosity to cloak ignorance, y’know – I’ll keep things short here. I can handle most of what I’m seeing [...]

Colorado Over LA – Yeah, It Was That Bad

By: Jeff | Comments 7 Comments

I think this gets it about right:

Things didn’t look so bleak for the Los Angeles Galaxy by the end of the first half. And, yeah, one could argue Omar Cummings picked up a soft penalty kick; as Max Bretos noted in his commentary Cummings popped back to his feet to continue the play after [...]

The Rapids Attack! An Offensive Review

By: Jeff | Comments 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 [...]
