This is a big decision for the Burgundy Boys
It is a symbol of leadership.
It is worn by the leader of men (or women) on the pitch of a soccer match and it is one of the most recognizable things in soccer.
How many times have you asked "who has the armband" before a match?
For the Colorado Rapids this is a question they have not asked that many times in their history as they have only had six permanent Captains in total:
| Years | Captain |
| 1996-1998 | Steve Trittschuh |
| 1999 | Marcelo Balboa and Peter Vermes |
| 2000-2001 | Marcelo Balboa |
| 2002-2004 | John Spencer |
| 2004-2013 | Pablo Mastroeni |
| 2013-2015 | Drew Moor |
But it is a question that is getting asked this off season.
