So there is a thread dedicated to CC on here already and seeing Fraser's name pop in there made me think, why don't we just have one thread where people post the progress made of any former Rapids player. So I've started it. Post anything about fomer Rapids players here.
Marcelo Balboa was hired as the Rapids Ambassador. He also coaches the Broomfield Blast, I think they are called. His hair remains lustrous and long. Sorry, couldn't help myself. Demon liquor and all that. Actually, good idea to start centralizing a few threads. B
Steve Trittschue is currenly the assistant coach for some MLS club ... replacing former Rapids Striker Paul Bravo that is now assistant for UCLA. The player that the Rapids traded for Bravo back in 97 is now head coach of a struggling MLS club that has no quality players
OUCH GoRapids....Wow for a Rapids fan you are a bitter one! Is Tritschuh up for a spot in the hall of fame?
Didn't mean it to be bitter ... Tritt's our assistant. Bravo moved to UCLA ... and Kinnear is coach of SJ. I was busting SJ's nut. Maybe you misunderstood.
