Podcast – Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, we have four games to talk about.
The guys start with a preview of the I-25 Derby. We get you caught up on the Colorado Springs Switchbacks since the 2024 championship and the first time Rabbi and Red met.
We look back on the first ever result against LAFC. There were so many good things out of that game despite a 0-0 draw. The boys dissect the 3-1 loss to Vancouver Whitecaps, but with a pretty big pinch of salt. There’s a conversation to be had about Rafael Navarro and Zack Steffen. Also, we pour one out for Whitecaps Fans. Save The Caps.
Lastly, we look at Houston Dynamo and Sam Vines on Saturday.
