DENVER—Altitude Sports announced today that it will broadcast 32 of 34 games, 16 home and 16 away for the 2021 Colorado Rapids season. Altitude’s coverage begins on Saturday, April 17 at 5:30 p.m. on the road against FC Dallas followed by the home opener on April 24 against Austin FC. All Rapids games on Altitude will begin with Rapids Kickoff, a 30-minute pregame show with up-to-the-minute news, features and interviews.
The broadcast team will include Richard Fleming as the team’s play-by-play announcer and will be joined by color analyst, Marcelo Balboa. Lauren Jbara will return as host for the pregame shows and provide sideline reports. Alan Gordon will provide analysis for both Altitude TV and Altitude Sports Radio 92.FM.
Connor Cape will continue to provide radio play-by-play of Rapids games on Altitude Sports Radio 92.5 FM and the Altitude Sports Radio app with select games airing on 950AM. For more information on where to listen, visit www.altitudesportsradio.com.
Altitude Sports is continuing to seek a resolution with both Comcast and DISH Network to carry Altitude Sports. Altitude will not stop fighting for our fans. What Comcast and DISH Network wants from us is a deal that would put Altitude out of business and raise prices on our fans – and we won’t stand for it. If you would like to speak with Comcast directly, they can be reached at 1-833-253-3725 and DISH Network 1-844-553-3725. At this time, you can find Altitude Sports available on DIRECTV, AT&T TV, Charter Communications and other cable providers in a 10-state region that includes Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, South Dakota, Wyoming and Utah. For additional information on cable and satellite providers in your area, visit www.altitudesports.com/channel-finder/.
