Hey Rapids fans. This week on HTHL, all is not well for the Colorado Rapids. This episode is a mess. Apologies. Rabbi and Red banter about the end of the European season and the NBA Playoffs. We try to make sense of the predicable mess that was Saturday's Rocky Mountain Cup game against RSL. Matt goes off on ranting tangent. Mark says our beer glass is in the works. We preview the two games this week, neither of which have good vibes. The Rocky Mountain Cup is a derby, but it's not a rivalry. It feels like we know how the season is going to go, and that makes it hard to feel good and care. We hope we're wrong. Also, Matt recorded this episode on the road for the day job, so apologies for the subpar audio quality. Holding The High Line is an independent soccer podcast focused on the Colorado Rapids of MLS.
