Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, we've got Rapids transfers to discuss.

Lucas Herrington has reportedly completed his medical at Hull City. We're just waiting on the press release at this point. We discuss the three rumored players in Couhaib Driouech, Filip Thovaldsen, Sayed Abu Farhi. It doesn't look like the Pids will sign any of them but we talk about them nonetheless. What does this say about where the Rapids stand on the transfer window with the Lucas funds coming in? We have thoughts. It feels different this time.

Then we touch on the Leagues Cup and Concacaf drama as Mexico supporters Infantino. We have a laugh at Azteca Portlandia (the same thing would happen to the Rapids, maybe worse).

Then we preview Sporting KC. Surprise, it's another most win for the Pids at DSGP. Excited to see Calvin Harris again.

Real Pids move in silence like lasagna.

The guys break down the 1-0 win over Austin FC. It was kind of good, kind of underwhelming, kind of bad. Should we be optimistic about the Pids or worried? We discuss.

Hello Colorado Rapids fans. Holding The High Line is back to normal. It's the week of the MLS All-Star Game and this year we actually care.

The guys recap the win over San Diego FC. It was an interesting tactical game, though it looks like a stalemate between two immovable objects. Should out to Kosi Thompson and Loïc Williams. Then we look at the loss to St. Louis CITY. Another Rob Holding DOGSO red card was deserved. The Pids almost held on for a draw down a man.

Rabbi and Red profile Youssef Maziz after the Tom Bogert La Bomba. We are encouraged by what we know about the French attacking midfielder. But are there some red flags? Also Matt explains the Yan Diomande controversy and why it's misleading and you should calm down.

The guys banter about the end of the European season. Mark gets his flowers for Arsenal winning the Premier League. We talk Champions League and react to the USMNT roster.

We break down the San Jose Earthquakes and FC Dallas game. The Pids made history in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup game. These matches had similar energy. Games of moments and goals where not a lot happened. Also, the officiating was a talking point. We break it down.

The we take a step back and look at the season so far. It's great the Rapids are in the Open Cup Semifinal. The team is playing some good football. But looking at the MLS table, the results don't like. What does Matt Wells say about the style of play, mentality, and progress?

Oh and we do some Rapid fire predictions for the rest of the season and the World Cup.

Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, Matt Pollard does a solo pod on his birthday. It's the final week of the Colorado Rapids season before the break for the World Cup. Let's get into it.

Matt talks about that win at Minnesota United. It was so important that Matt Wells showed some pragmatism and it paid off. We look back at a disappointing loss in the Rocky Mountain Cup. There were some circumstantial tactical issues that gave RSL an advantage. The Pids still have the tie breaker and a chance to make it a three-peat.

Then Matt looks ahead to the double game week. It's a massive Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup game against San Jose Earthquakes. Then it's firework night against FC Dallas.

Oh, and vote for Rafa Navarro and Lucas Herrington in the MLS All-Star Game fan vote.
