The Rapids finish their East Coast swing with a game in the cation's capital tomorrow evening. There's no salvaging this trip, being down 10-1 so far. With the way tonight's games have gone the playoff line is at 48 points, so anything short of a win tomorrow means that Colorado would have to win out and get a lot of help to make it in, but based on the way we played in August, 1.14 PPG while being outscored 21-13 (oddly, that 1.14 is exactly our season average too) we're not going to win 5 straight anyway. Kickoff tomorrow is at 5:30pm and we have 5 more blackouts before the Apple deal ends it. Though the way we're playing I'm not sure the blackouts are a bad thing.
Injury Report:
OUT: D Seb Anderson, D Jackson Travis, M Ollie Larraz, M Jack Price
Disciplinary Report:
ONE YELLOW FROM SUSPENSION; D Lalas Abubakar, M Bryan Acosta
At this point I hope Fraser puts out 11 players who actually care about not checking out for minutes at a time and that want to win the game.
Prediction: 1-1 draw, goal by Rubio. Do you see this team winning? Me neither, no matter how bad DC is. They are bad enough that we should get a point, but until the Rapids actually appear to care about winning, I'm not going to predict they will.
