"The contract with Fernando Clavijo has been terminated, effective immediately. John Murphy will step in as interim head coach as an intensive search begins for a quality coach worthy of the Rapids fans...."
All this went through my head in the time it took to load the Rapids web page this morning. What I saw when I got there?!?
"Pablo to appear on Emeril tonight"
BAM!
How's that for a slap in the face of Rapids fans? I assumed after the Rapids played the slowest, most horrendous and difficult to watch 10 minutes I've ever been a party to, that the Rapids would have no choice but to let Cluevijoless go.
Watching the Rapids go up a man and then take their time, bop the ball around the back, and generally fail to produce a coherent attack until after time should have been called? It was so painful that I cannot, in good conscience, attend the July 4th game.
My apologies, but I will not be attending another Rapids home MLS game until the coach is gone.
Or Beckham shows up. I'm not planning on depriving myself of that experience.
