The burgundy malaise: A Front Office problem?

The Colorado Rapids 2017 season has been a massive disappointment so far.

That is not a shocking or particularly earth shattering thing to say. After setting a record for wins, points, home record, attendance, and nearly winning the Supporters’ Shield in 2016 - expectations were sky high for the Rapids.

Hell, the staff here at the Wave were all quite bullish on the chances of the team in 2017 (except me, but I am a massive pessimist when it comes to this team). Almost everyone predicted playoffs and a high finish.

However, and this requires a 35,000-foot look at it, what is going on is completely and utterly understandable.
