Best way to watch a Rapids game
And, of course, a US Men's National Team game on the other telly. Yes, it was down to the British Bulldog for Class VIers, and an enjoyable Thursday evening was had by all...of the people who didn't focus on the Rapids too much.
Perhaps not one of the better USMNT games either. "Smashing" Guatemala 1-0 while getting Gooch red-carded and the rest of the back line yellow striped was not the most impressive showing.
And the Rapids? Whoosh. Fernando proved that his new lineup of Cancela, Peterson and BilFish (I mean Conor Casey) was at the same level of effectiveness as his proven line of Niko, Jovan and Cookie.
Not sure how that makes me feel better, but in some way it does. I guess it means we wouldn't be at the top of the table in either case. However, I felt Casey looked decent, for whatever that's worth. Peterson vanished. I liked Cancela's vision. Grow some long, crazy hair like Beckerrama and that should make old-school Rapids' supporters more comfortable.
