The Earthquakes take on the Colorado Rapids in a match-up of two MLS originals this Saturday at Avaya Stadium. The weekly email sent out by the team says the Earthquakes are looking to avenge an earlier loss in the season when the Rapids beat the Quakes 2-1 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park but every supporter knows that at this point in the season this team is playing to stay away from the wooden spoon. For the uninitiated, the wooden spoon award is handed out to the MLS team that finishes the season with the least amount of points.
