This year started out with so much potential. Coming out of training camp things were looking up for the Fire. There was a brand new vibe and even if the logo was (and still is) problematic, the team on the field looked good in preseason with new signings still on the way. They even proved they were in fighting shape by keeping up with the defending champions in their opening game, then drawing in Foxboro against a Revolution side that had a lot of firepower.
But from there, everything went down hill, both inside and outside of our MLS bubble.
