Minutes after coming off the field in a 1-0 loss that eliminated the Colorado Rapids from the MLS Cup playoffs, Rapids midfielder Jermaine Jones announced to the Denver Post, to twitter, and to the world, that he is gone, baby, gone.
In a tweet that was immediately deleted, JJ pulled the rip cord just minutes after putting in a solid shift in the defeat to Seattle Sounders. Speaking to Daniel Boniface of the Denver Post, Jermaine said “I’m a free agent now. I will sit back and see what comes. I’m not scared to go back to Europe or scared to go to Mexico or somewhere.
