The big news this week is the Rapids announcement that at the next home game on July 25th Pablo Mastroeni will added to the Gallery of Honor alongside Bravo, Balboa, Henderson, and Spencer. Due to his obvious responsibilities at halftime the ceremony will occur before kickoff at 7:15. Also the first 2000 fans will get a Pablo Mastroeni bobblehead.
Also in the news this week, GK Joe Nasco will be loaned to Atlanta, is former club for the rest of the season. A good move by the Rapids to get their 3rd GK some playing time now that Berner has obviously become the #2 of choice.
The final piece of news, not unexpected, is that the Disciplinary Committee has suspended Shane O'Neill for Friday night's game due to his 11th minute tackle on Cruz in Philly last week. Its a deserved suspension as that was a horrible tackle but it doesn't make our life on Friday night in Portland any easier.
Finally a tip of the hat to MLS marketing for this awesome Ferris Buller parody starring the Fire's Mike Magee. There's nothing related to the Rapids in it but its worth watching. I heard that their first idea was Moor & Minda set in Boulder but it didn't test well. Nanu, nanu! :D
