Kroenke has been so bad for Denver. Like how is this event going to NY and CLB from LA but not a Denver (or SLC) soccer specific stadium
MILAN (AP) — 2028 LA Olympics soccer will be hosted by New York, Columbus, Nashville, St. Louis, San Diego and San Jose.

📦BSF Scoop!

Cole Bassett. Colorado native. The best Homegrown in Rapids history (so far). An imperfect but talented and dynamic midfielder. BW reacts to his departure from the club:

Interested to hear #Rapids96 perspective on this as the season approaches.

Would signing Chucky Lozano move the needle enough for you as a Rapids fan for this upcoming season following the Bassett news?

Matt Wells on Cole Bassett: "Really top player. Really positive in terms of the interactions I've had with him. ... We're gonna have to make difficult choices and this was certainly one of them."

Seems clear the Rapids think they had enough depth at midfield and Cole Bassett was a player they could sell and get better by spending what they got back at other positions.

Reminds us of @josephsamelson.com’s bit about Bassett being a bit of a luxury player.

“That’s something that’s accelerated over the last 24 hours.” “Change isn’t always comfortable.” “Unbelievable person. Real top player. We’re going to have to make difficult choices.”

Said there will be signings. That transfer revenue will be spent. Judge the team at the end of the window.

Matt Wells on the reason transfer Cole Bassett: “There’s going to be change. Squad composition comes into that bracket. This allows us to strengthen the squad by sharing resources across other areas of the pitch. In midfield, I feel I have good competition. In other areas, that’s lacking.”

Matt Pollard asked Rapids HC Matt Wells the 'what caused you decide to move on from Cole Bassett?' question.

Two quotes in his reply stand out: “there’s gonna be change here ... you’re gonna feel 2 emotions with me - you’re gonna feel excitement & you’re gonna feel uncomfortable.” /1
