If you’re like me, you are cautiously optimistic about today. The Colorado Rapids have a chance to clinch a playoff spot, and all they have to do is win or tie*.At home. Against a team that hasn’t won a single away game this season. But that means it could also be the perfect time for the Portland Timbers to roll into town and grab three points.
Let’s hope for the former.
A win for the Rapids today would also bring them up to 51 points, tying the club record. It’s unlikely that we will see Kevin Doyle today, and who knows when Jermaine Jones will be back, so I’m looking forward to seeing the Marlon Hairston/Dominique Badji combo up top again.
