PODCAST – Welcome to the apocalypse, Rapids fans. We hope you like Wooden Spoons. This week on Holding The High Line, pint glasses are here! You can get one by supporting us on Substack! We discusses the delayed Vancouver game and the wild night Red had regardless of no soccer being played. We do try to guess when that match will be rescheduled. Spoiler: We recorded before the announcement that it’ll be played September 27.
The guys banter about the Gold Cup. We talk big picture about the draw with LA Galaxy and highlight some individuals and tactical ideas. Then we give Colorado Rapids 2 their flowers, as they sit top of the table in MLS NEXT Pro. Lastly, we look ahead to the first road game at CityPark with a Colorado Rapids St. Louis CITY preview.

About Us:
Matt Pollard is an editor for Last Word on Soccer and an engineer by day. A Colorado Convert, he started covering the Colorado Rapids as a credentialed member of the press in 2016, though he’s watched MLS since ’96. When he’s not watching or writing about soccer, he’s being an outdoorsman (mostly skiing and hiking) in this beautiful state or trying a new beer. For some reason, he thought that starting a podcast with Mark was a good idea and he can’t figure out how to stop this madness. He also hosts Last Word SC Radio.
Mark Goodman, the artist formally known as Rapids Rabbi, moved to Colorado in 2011. Shortly thereafter he went to Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, saw Lee Nguyen dribble a ball with the silky smoothness of liquid chocolate cascading into a Bar Mitzvah fountain, and promptly fell head over heels in love with domestic soccer. When not watching soccer or coaching his son’s U-8 team, he’s generally studying either Talmud or medieval biblical exegesis. Which explains why he watches so much MLS, probably. Having relocated to Pittsburgh in 2017, he covers the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of the USL for Pittsburgh Soccer Now.
