PODCAST – Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, we have a Rocky Mountain Cup win to discuss! Rabbi and Red discuss how the Colorado Rapids did to Real Salt Lake what RSL normally does to them. We discuss Oliver Larraz’s comparisons to Jeff Larentowciz and the USWNT winning the W Gold Cup. Then we preview the Seattle Sounders afternoon game on Saturday. Lastly, there’s some breaking news on Ralph Priso. We also take questions on expectations, best draft picks in Colorado history, and more.
Holding The High Line: Rocky Mountain Cup Win
About Us:
Matt Pollard is an editor for Last Word on Soccer and an engineer by day. A Colorado Convert, he started covering the Colorado Rapids as a credentialed member of the press in 2016, though he’s watched MLS since ’96. When he’s not watching or writing about soccer, he’s being an outdoorsman (mostly skiing and hiking) in this beautiful state or trying a new beer. For some reason, he thought that starting a podcast with Mark was a good idea and he can’t figure out how to stop this madness. He also hosts Last Word SC Radio.
Mark Goodman, the artist formally known as Rapids Rabbi, moved to Colorado in 2011. Shortly thereafter he went to Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, saw Lee Nguyen dribble a ball with the silky smoothness of liquid chocolate cascading into a Bar Mitzvah fountain, and promptly fell head over heels in love with domestic soccer. When not watching soccer or coaching his son’s U-8 team, he’s generally studying either Talmud or medieval biblical exegesis. Which explains why he watches so much MLS, probably. Having relocated to Pittsburgh in 2017, he covers the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of the USL for Pittsburgh Soccer Now.
