Why give up hope? The Rapids only have 1 more home game. :bag:

Out of reach is a pretty strong statement. There are *a lot* of scenarios where RSL ends up in the playoffs. As one person has already pointed out, cRapids has a lot of road games to play. RSL nearly needs to run the remaining schedule and needs at least 6 points to have an outside chance. But the chance is definitely there.

And I don't think they'll do it. It's a fairly simple concept.

Chance is there, but not likely, is it?

to be honest i'm not overly confident we will make it into the playoffs, but that doesn't disappoint me, just because of how competative the western conference has been this year. Yea its disappointing missing out by 2 points or whatever, but we've been in 5th pushing for 4th for the last few weeks, all the teams in our conference are now playing well and its nice to see how equal we alll are.

I would love it if we were able to make the playoffs. But all I'm really hoping for right now is a .500 record. 3 wins and two ties, or 4 wins will make that a reality. Of course, if the team reaches that mark, it will most likely also earn a spot in the playoffs.

Honestly the playoffs aren't even an issue for me at this point......let's face it, if we did manage to squeak into the last spot, there's a good chance we'd get bounced right off the bat. I'm just glad that we've played our way into these circumstances, where these last few games actually mean something (unlike last year).

don't discredit the "day of the dead" match against the cheetos! We proved we were the tallest dwarf that night.

Last night on the Jerry Seiner Coach's show, Ellinger mentioned that there's some kind of tournament in St Kitts after MLS Cup.

Supposedly, going to the Caribbean will be an incentive for RSL players if they perform well.

And players who don't perform well will be sent to a tournament in Logan.
