Rapids finally win one!

And it turns out that an absolute thriller of a game is a horrible thing to write about!

There's a fine balance between gushing and glowing and trying not to be too cynical about one great win after so many poor appearances by the Rapids this year.

Ahhh, the angst of a budding sports writer. The see-saw of the journalistic profession, the balance between creativity, a critical eye, and unadulterated enjoyment of the game.

Here's my attempt to help capture the Rapids at home in a 2-0 thrashing over the struggling Chicago Fire.

Rapids find key to excellence on American Soccer News.

As always, if a blizzard hits the computers housing ASN, there's always a fault-tolerant backup located at BilFish's Soccer Writing MiniSite. Look for the July 30th article.
