The Rapids came within a minute of launching into the MLS playoffs last year. With the momentum of a returning coach, the continued leadership of Pablo Mastroeni, and <a href="http://coloradorapidsfan.com/2009/01/clark-labrocca-harvey-and-kimura-here-to-stay/">locking in key young players to multi-year deals</a>, the Rapids have solidified their team for the next several years.<span id="more-105"></span></p>
<p>That said, here are my expectations for the Rapids this year<br />
- Contend for the Western Conference lead throughout the season<br />
- Make the playoffs<br />
- Win the first round of the playoffs</p>
<p>The rest would be gravy. What are your expectations for our Rapids?</p>
