Scratch your head
This is one of those articles that I don't quite get. How did it happen? Who is this yahoo writing it?
Dunno, and don't care are the two answers.
Anyway, enjoy a slightly odd piece written by Rogers Und Hammerstein.
It's got more quotes from Dicktator Plush than I can recall seeing together in one place. I leave it to you to make of the content what you will, but basically he explains why Denver sucks. Gee, thanks Plush! Couldn't disagree more.
As for me, it's weird, until you realize what the article does *not* mention. It doesn't mention, for example, that the Rapids can't seem to actually sign a DP like many of the other clubs. Suddenly it seems a lot more like an excuse-y backup story for why we won't spend money in Colorado.
Ooohh. Did I just say that? Not really. Soon-to-be former Coach Fernando Cluevijoless did in the newspaper a couple days ago.
Ultimately, what I need to see is a quote like this: "Yes, Colorado is a different market, but that's no excuse. There are plenty of people who play in crappy, dreary conditions around the world (ahem, England) and still manage to enjoy themselves. We are sorry for not signing a DP sooner. We'll get right on that."
