What Stan Kroenke’s Takeover Of Arsenal Means For The Colorado Rapids

Stan Kroenke may not be the most visible owner in MLS, but he is quickly becoming one of the more powerful owners in the soccer world. Kroenke, of course, is now the majority owner of Arsenal, but he also owns the Colorado Rapids. Burgundy Wave, SB Nation's Colorado Rapids blog, tries to assess what this new development could mean for them:

Colorado probably won't see any change after this - perhaps the partnership between the two teams will become stronger than before in some way with trials for Rapids players over in London or something of the sort - but it's nice to know that Stan's stake in the game of football is ever growing and perhaps this means he will continue to work with making the Rapids a top club in MLS, something that seemed somewhat unlikely as early as a few years ago when he was pumping all of his money into the Nuggets and a share in Arsenal was not on the radar.
