A brutal reality check in the derby. What started with an early Wayne Frederick goal unraveled into a painful 2-1 defeat to RSL. The Rocky Mountain Cup is close to going back to Utah, and our margin for error is officially zero.
How do we reset immediately?
We look ahead to a massive, non-negotiable US Open Cup home clash at Dick's Sporting Goods Park against second-place San Jose. It is time to return to our identity, use the altitude, and advance.

@theduanebrown Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that, but glad she is doing ok. Keeping you and your family I my thoughts. I struggle with the same things as well. Parents back in Indiana and see them infrequently. I know I will regret that one day.
I was curious of the real impact of Paxten for the Rapids. But he helps pull attention away from others on the field. When he is not there all the focus is on Rafa and he is the creator. With one more DP or player at that level or higher could really push the attack to another level
#Rapids96 have been shutout 3x this season. Paxten Aaronson did not start in 2 of those matches.
In the 2 matches Aaronson did not start, Colorado have averaged 0.33xG, the lowest mark in the league. Small sample size but the Rapids REALLY miss their primary chance creator
Another test on the road.
We’re LIVE for Rapids vs Houston tonight.
Come hang with us and talk it through in real time.

@Lee_Coys and @DaddyShuttle will be back tonight to preview the #USOC match against #Switchbacks.
@StuckontheSofa@MLS@WhitecapsFC@ColoradoRapids Yeah definitely weren't a clinical as i works have liked but they made it a battle and didn't roll over. Thought we had a shot to steal a point, but think our tanks were were pretty empty at the end.
