As the summer cooked away into October...and November, along did the Rapids. For a team picked to finish fairly low in the MLS standings, they defied the odds and put together a great run to get to the MLS Cup Championship against FC Dallas, another team that was slated to sit on the sidelines in the post season. Now, both teams find themselves in the final in Toronto and the Rapids are on the verge of bringing another championship to Denver.
I also was excited to see the addition of an old classmate of mine Brain Mullan to the team part way through the season. Though it has been 13 years since he took the field and won a Soccer State Championship for Regis Jesuit High School, it was great to see him return to Denver and have another chance to win a professional championship.
To the fans that 'Bleed Burgundy' this season, Hail To THEE!
