The Rapids draw against LAFC but miss the playoffs, sparking a look back at their 2025 season.

This episode of The Colorado Rapids Podcast reviews the Colorado Rapids' 2025 season and recent playoff outcomes. Host Michael Bowling is joined by former Rapids player and club legend Drew Moor. The hosts open by sharing their mixed emotions about the first team's playoff elimination and the developmental team's ongoing success. The primary focus is the Rapids' 1-1 draw against LAFC, a result that mathematically eliminated the first team from MLS Cup playoff contention. Conversely, the club's second team, Rapids 2, won its playoff match and advanced in the MLS NEXT Pro postseason. Moor expresses his personal dislike for the offseason, which will now be longer than desired. The hosts plan to conduct a full retrospective analysis of the 2025 season during the episode. An off-topic, lighthearted conversation reveals Moor's strong aversion to air turbulence and flying in windy conditions. Bowling jokes that he would recognize Moor's screams from the back of any airplane. The hosts find a silver lining in the continued playoff run of the younger Rapids 2 squad. The discussion underscores the immediate emotional letdown following a season-ending result for the senior team. Moor's status as a club legend provides an insider's perspective on the disappointment of missing the playoffs. The windy weather in Colorado becomes a running gag, with Moor noting his Halloween decorations were blown to Kansas. The conversation naturally blends serious sports analysis with personal, relatable anecdotes. The tone is casual and conversational, featuring friendly banter between the two hosts. The style is a mix of immediate match reaction and broader season review, typical of a sports podcast. This episode is ideal for dedicated Colorado Rapids fans seeking post-game analysis and season commentary. Listeners looking for hard news or interviews with current players might find the content too focused on host reactions.
