Rapids roll into erratic September
The Colorado Rapids play five games this month. In the 15-year history of the club, September has been a rollercoaster.
The team has played five times during the month on five occasions. The best was a 4-1-0 record in September 1998. The worst was a 1-4-0 stretch the year before. The worst September came when the club lost both games that month in 2001.
All time, the team is 25-23-8 in September games. In 2009, the Rapids went 1-1-3 as the team swooned from playoff standing to watching on the sidelines.
The year before, the team came to life, winning three and drawing once in a four-game stretch.
