However, what transpired in the latter part of the second half might have Galaxy fans wondering why they haven't seen that version of the club. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the 3-3 draw, the atmosphere in the stadium, and why the Galaxy should be a better team this season. Did the Galaxy earn the point, or did LAFC choke when they had opportunities to keep the Galaxy at bay? Was the red card earned? Was stoppage time too long? And what about the cups being thrown at Referees on the way out? Plus, examining the continued intrusion of ICE into Southern California and what that means for a Galaxy team grappling to make amends with their supporter groups. Should MLS be leading? Let's get you ready for another week of Galaxy soccer, the only way we know how! -- Corner of the Galaxy is kicking off Season 17, just a few shows past number 1,200!

Send us a textLAFC and Carson played for the 26th time on Saturday, and this one, for Black and Gold Faithful, may have been the most frustrating yet. Despite twice holding a 2-goal lead, LAFC had to settle for a point in a 3-3 draw as Galaxy scored at the death.Denis Bouanga did all he could while he was on the pitch, scoring twice to move within 6 of Carlos Vela all-time. Gabriel Pec added a brace of his own, and a last-second header by Maya Yoshida forced both sides home with a point. A red card for Eddie Segura in stoppage certainly complicates matters for the home side in their next match against Portland. Also on this episode, Bone Thugs and Harmony make an appearance at BMO!

But with a big stumble against Austin FC on Wednesday night, it feels like the season has finally become too much to beat back. It's not like the math was on their side to begin with. On today's show, host Josh Guesman dives into the loss to Austin and why El Trafico takes on new meaning -- a chance NOT to be embarrassed against a heavily favored side of LAFC.

Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, we have so much to talk about. Rabbi has some work commitments so Red is joined by Keith Richards with Team NBS Media and Spencer Baldwin (Burgundy Wave's intern). This three-man midfield cooks. The trio banters about the USMNT getting a friendly at DICK's against Australia on October 14. We discuss that Jackson Travis red card against LAFC and how it ruined the game (and the 4-4-2 diamond game plan). We move on to the joy that was the win over Vancouver Whitecaps. Djordje and the Goal Scorers sounds like a fun band name. The whole team played well. Forgot to say this on the pod, but don't think the ball was over the line on that 11th minute chance. The guests share what they hope to see from the retro 30th anniversary third kit. We discuss who should take the next penalty the Rapids win. Matt celebrates Reggie Cannon rightfully getting the bag from Boavista. Keith has updates on Rapids 2. Spencer has thoughts on Kévin Cabral's imminent future given he wasn't at the Meet the Team Party . . . Then we look ahead to Seattle Sounders. Oh and Matt forgot to make the following joke: Cole Palmer has spent more time talking to Donald Trump than Cole Bassett has spent talking to Stan Kroenke.
Josh and Kirk discuss the win over Dallas and take questions from Seth Burton's favorite "anonymous trolls".
We talk about the “most aggressive set-piece team in the world.” We review the friendly draw with the Germans, the Open Cup win over the Fire, and the thrashing of the Quakes 4-1.

Hello Colorado Rapids fans. We hope you all had a good 4th of July. On this Sunday episode of Holding The High Line, we analyze that 4thFest loss to Sporting Kansas City and preview a difficult double game week. First the guys banter about the Gold Cup Final. Was it mission accomplished for the USMNT even with the performance and loss to Mexico? Has this altered expectations for us going into the World Cup next summer? What does this mean for the national team hopefuls on the Rapids? How should Rapids fans feel about RSL star Diego Luna playing well during the tournament? We discuss. Then we recap the loss to SKC? It was a good performance overall but in the context of having three really bad mistakes and not executing in small moments. Be prepared to learn what we thought on Conor Ronan's performance. What was up with Djordje Mihailović and Cole Bassett? Also what was up with 17,576 being a sellout at DSGP, the P-I-D-S chant, and the DIA substitution jingle? We also look big picture at whether this team can or will make the playoffs? Chris Armas continues to take the long view even though he's technically out of contract after this year. The Rapids actually have an easy schedule the rest of the way, even though July is tough. Red talks about what it means. Then we look ahead to LAFC and Vancouver. Colorado has a bad record at BMO Stadium, 0-8 all time, outscored 23-2. Rabbi thinks this might be the chance to catch LAFC while they're down. Club World Cup fatigue, Olivier Giroud exit and all. Oh, and we'll see what happens as this is the first game since the inappropriate language incident between Sergi Palencia and Chido Awaziem. Great. Similarly, Whitecaps are a good team but might be leggy due to players being at the Concacaf Gold Cup. They've also had two really bad losses, including a 3-0 loss to LA Galaxy. Yikes. Can the Rapids get a result against two teams who will have more rest than them? We make predictions. Also Mark would like to formally apologize to Wheat Ridge and Glendale.
The boys get together after Saturday's postponed home match to look ahead to a busy Austin FC week.
