    Well that's a lackluster hire. The guy was terrible in MLS, then worked with the crooks over at Traffic....but it's ok, he played in MLS and knows people in South America. I guess Steve Sampson wasn't available.

    I'll remain optimistic about this. Fernando Clavijo might've been a crap coach, but the requisite skill sets for coach and for TD are quite a bit different.

    Clavijo is such a terrible coach, but I think he might work well as a technical director.

    I wasn't a fan of the Hyndman hire - but that has worked okay since he got here.

    I was not a big fan of the Ellinger hire - but that has not been a total disaster.

    I am not a fan of the Clavijo hire - his MLS teams were pretty poor and boring to watch. But as a TD this has the potential to not be a dumpster fire. I guess we will see.

    How's that for an endorsement?

    As a Rapids fan I have to think this is nothing but bad news for you guys,

    That said, all of you saying he was a bad coach should remember how the '05 and '06 seasons ended.

    By him beating another equally terrible coach by playing ugly hack soccer? Yeah, I remember.

    Colorado certainly got the better of the Pareja - Clavijo trade.

    Sure, why not! Season is looking to be a good one, DF is making return so let's hire the little sh!t that ruined our playoff runs. Do the Hunts not remember his sorry a$$ starting trouble with fans during games by taunting them. He's a chilito!

    Water under the bridge at this point. I've done a good enough job suppressing those memories.
