Podcast: Georgi Minoungou Trade. Denver Summit Attendance. Toronto Preview. USMNT.

Podcast – Hello Colorado Rapids fans. Happy April Fools. On this episode of Holding The High Line, we preview the Toronto FC game.

The guys banter about the Denver Summit home opener and the attendance record that was set. We do a round table on the international window. The USMNT is back in a familiar and disappointing state. A number of Rapids players had good call-ups. The Lucas Herrington and Darren Yapi hype is real.

Rabbi and Red breakdown the end of the transfer window. Georgi Minoungou and Kosi Thompson were late additions. Luïc Williams was official as well.

Then we talk TFC, Robin Fraser, Djordje Mihailović and more.
