RapidFire Quote of the Week

Today's RapidFire Quote of the Week comes from Rapids Team Captain Pablo Mastroeni, speaking about his guest appearance on The Food Network's "Emeril Live" TV show last night:

"It was almost a surreal moment for me. Being such a big fan of his for the last 10 years, it was like being in the presence of my favorite soccer player, being in the presence of Diego Maradona, in a weird way, in a different way. You have the same type of respect....It was a pleasure to see someone with so much clout, so much prestige, to be so humble and so giving and so thankful. He was real grateful that we had the opportunity to stop by and spread the message of soccer and what that means to the younger kids in America."
