      Hey long time no talk. Had a bunch of life events and just kinda fell off the planet for a while. Any way we are planning a trip to Colorado this summer, and we will be in town for the RMC at the end of August. Where should we sit to be closest to the supporters group but not in it.

      Quick request for assistance. I'm involved in a group who might start a trophy rivalry game between a CU women's team and another university. Any advice on protecting the trophy, which has been as issue with RSL? And you wouldn't have a copy of the rules that you could share, would you? Just something to get me started. I'll let you know how it goes.

        Make sure to have reps on both sides of the rivalry who care about it and the trophy, and then have a policy that the trophy is never out with the fans without one of those reps being with it. (We allow the teams/FOs to have it without us, but not the supporters).

        The RMC rules are pretty basic. Most points wins. In a tie most goals wins. If still tied the competition is essentially tied that year and the current holders keep the Cup. If the scheduling is stable with an equal number of home/away games you can use away goals but we dropped it as a tiebreaker because MLS's schedule changes too much.

      Your stadium felt the "smallest" of the 4 I've been too. Not saying that's a bad thing either. If that place had been packed and the fans had been more vocal I can see that stadium being a shit-ton of fun.

      Even though Avaya is actually smaller capacity wise, you walk in a field level, and the steep rake of the stands makes you feel as though the stadium is a lot bigger. This 420 character limit is killing me.

      Hey homie. I'm planning a trip to Denver to catch a game at The Dick (you guys should call it that if you don't already) this June. Would be cool to meet up before the game. I'll keep you posted as I start to figure out details.

        Sounds good! And yes, we do call it that. Just plan on hitting the C38 tailgate, you'll find me there. ;)

      Thanks for the rep. I did the exact same thing and got 2 jerseys when Crown Paint was the sponsor just in case the next one was shite again. As it turns out, I really dig this season's home kit and I hope to get a Goodwillie for Xmas.

      I was originally in Seattle (back before they had a team), and picked the Rapids because of local boys Chris Henderson and Marcus Hahnemann. Then I was in Phoenix for 4 years. 2.5 years ago I moved to Denver though, and I've hit 90% of the home games since then.

      Do you attend Rapids games? I think I remeber you are a fan, but in Seattle somewhere? Just for information.... I can't go Saturday because I am offshore on an oil rig for a couple of weeks..

      Almost, nothing's better than winning but FSL going down is close.

      Dude. Last night's FSL series loss MUST have been just as delicious as Crado's series win. Si?

      The Rapids blog is giving the RMC site a hard time.
