Tim Hinchey’s departure from the Rapids closes what was a period of growth and growing pains, success and failure, for the Colorado Rapids under his leadership. Hinchey saw the team through some significant changes, but also leaves behind a Rapids team that seems to be unsure of its place in modern MLS and its direction as a club going forward.
Hinchey oversaw all aspects of the Colorado Rapids since his appointment as Team President in December, 2011. He was responsible for the club’s successes and failures on the field, their financial situation, any new programs and initiatives they undertook, any hiring and firing, the overall fan experience, and everything in between.
