Podcast – Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, Home Debut FC is hype!
Rabbi and Red banter about the start of the English Premier League. We talk Arsenal trying to repeat, the relegation battle, the big six(?), and Hull City. We also break down how Club Leon is hosting Real Salt Lake at DICK’s Sporting Goods Park in Leagues Cup.
Over the weekend, the Rapids got a two goal and two man win over Sporting KC. We talk about that. We preview LAFC and San Diego FC. Are we optimistic about this week for the Pids?
We also touch on the transfer window going quiet despite the Sayed Abu Farhi links.
