    oh crap, you didn't use the "formerly" stuff from last year and the only reason we won any games at all. ;)

    It was "Ex" last year, but I figured that only worked in 2016. We need a new lucky charm this year. :D

    Watch all the goals (for both teams fortunately -- respectable defense) in 30 seconds or less. Becoming a poster child team for "Soccer will never catch on in this Country." Sad. #makerapidsoffensegreatagain, #2010

    Nice, I'm ready for some howntown Soccer.

    I see zero changes to starting XI from last year though. Teams have figures us out so lower point total for sure this season.

    And I am uncharacteristically pessimistic. Perhaps it's because I don't see the Rapids doing well as they did last season. So I am going to be a bit snarky in saying I think the Pids and Revs will play to a draw of some sort with the Rapids pumping a lot of balls into the box only to see them easily cleared. Time and time again they will advance the ball into the final third only to see the final ball denied. It's going to be even more challenging without Gashi (I am assuming he is still recovering from injury).

    Maybe drinking Jameson will be this year's lucky charm! If we keep trying we can make it happen.

    If you nobody "fills their pants" on defense, we should be able to come away with a comfortable draw.

    Stealing from the ref forum. Colorado-NE will be the 5000th MLS game.

    I know nothing about New England, I'd need to listen to season pre-view podcast. But I'll predict a 1-1 tie because, well, us.

    I'm a little dumb founded that anyone is predicting us to score 2 goals, but I'd much rather be wrong, so here's to hoping for a goal deluge (that's 2 goals for the Rapids).

    Is Gashi healthy enough to play? Pablo sounded very cautious about playing him until his Achilles is 100%.

    Well he wasn't on the injury report this week so I'm assuming he's good enough to at least sub in.

    Wow, game day! (Cue Drew Moor...)

    Did Boateng start any of the Diamond Cup games, or play in the final? Will today's starting XI be this?


    -------MacMath
    Miller-Watts-Sjoberg-Burch
    ----Azira---Cronin
    Hairston-Powers-Badji
