We spent quite a while around here talking about how awesome the Swansea City friendly was going to be, and we were gleefully proven correct on Saturday as the Rapids ended up winning an immensely entertaining match-up. A lot of guys came onto the field to show their stuff against Swansea, and most of them…

Casey and Cummings are obvious reasons why the two haven't been seeing the field as much, but the contentious name is, of course, Edu.

They actually had a season strikingly similar — though not…

"Edu was brought in with big money and some hype," the argument went. "He's been so miserable with the team because he's not getting the starting minutes that he was expecting from Oscar Pareja." Perhaps I'm being hard on the guy, he's only played 330 minutes of soccer with the Rapids so far in his…
