I hate to sound like a Monday Morning Manager, but I've got a few things to discuss here. Most are Class VI-related, but first a few comments about Saturday's loss to Dallas.
First, I like to be surprised. I know that we can't win in Dallas without something to spoil (like the Steer's ability to get home advantage for MLS Cup). But I'd like to be surprised by the effort of the lads we send out there.
Not surprised this weekend. Not surprised at all. Let's fix that for this Saturday's game when Houston comes to town all hoity-toity, #1 in the league right now. Surprise me! Show up and play! And I'm looking at the youngin's as well as the "pros" we usually bag on.
Ultimately, I've seen some great MLS soccer lately. None of it from the Rapids.
==================

Tailgate this Saturday!
In these trying times, stay the course, if we can just hold on, it's not over 'til it's over...and other platitudes. In any event, now more than ever Class VI tailgates are what hold us together.
Let's get out there with a great effort! Put the finishing touches on those fantastic dishes, and do what you can to buck up the spirits of your fellow Class VI-ers!
Remember, our Grand Poobah is on vacation from reality right now. In his honor, let's push through to the end!
