Scientific Community Baffled By Man Who Can Do No Wrong

Cambridge, MA - The scientific community at the Massachusetts Institute Of Technology (MIT) stated that they were completely baffled by Merritt Paulson, part owner of the Portland Timbers and the Portland Thorns, with his ability to do no wrong, ever.

“We’ve never seen anyone who has ever lived such a life without any mistakes of any kind,” stated one anonymous researcher. “It is positively insane to imagine such a thing but here we are. The man has never done anything wrong.”

Sources indicate that a full study on the “rightness” of Merritt Paulson was started shortly after he announced that the team had done nothing wrong during the opening salvo of the Portland Thorns abuse scandal that has now enveloped the entire National Women’s Soccer League.

“We couldn’t believe that a team who was involved in this scandal, a team where a general manager and ownership group actively knew about the abuse performed by a head coach they employed could do no wrong, but the reality is that Merritt Paulson still did no wrong. We asked him ‘is the Sky blue’ and he said ‘no they are Gotham now’ it was unbelievable. He is right always, even by technicality.”

Some of those outside the study indicate that they believe the “Do No Wrong” study to be flawed as it rests entirely on the word of Paulson himself, however those within the study indicate that they have rigorous controls.

“We ask Mr Paulson once in the morning and then once in the evening if he’s done anything wrong,” stated Professor Gerhart Struber. “And he answers that he has done nothing wrong. It is astounding. This is a double blind study. We asked Mr Paulson with a blindfold on whether he has done anything wrong and again he said no!”

Scientists were even more baffled to see him make up things about their own field of study. After checking their peer reviewed papers to review his claims, they just said “Merritts right lol” in the conclusion section of all of them.

“I spent my whole life researching anthropology,” stated Professor Anita Bryce, “and none of it mattered because it wasn’t validated by Paulson. It’s remarkable. He is just never wrong”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as the ongoing study is shocked that, in fact, Paulson still indicates that he has done nothing wrong, ever.

Divorced Littleton Dad Ready To Celebrate Thanksgiving Via Zoom Call In Rapids Stadium

Littleton, CO - 49 year old divorced Littleton dad Paul McDaniels stated that he was ready to celebrate Thanksgiving with his daughter Lauren and his parents via a Zoom conference call at the Colorado Rapids playoff game on Thanksgiving.

McDaniels, who stated that he hasn’t had a lot of luck on the dating apps, indicated that he thought this would be a welcome change of pace from eating a rotisserie chicken at home and re-watching Firefly.

“Fortunately there's a 40 minute limit on Zooms, now. I should be done to enjoy the second half with my real family, Centennial 96," stated McDaniels.

McDaniels only concern was that it would snow at the game as he still hasn’t gotten the snow coats he lost in the divorce back. “It would be real unfortunate if it snowed, almost as unfortunate as me being the same clothing size as my wife’s new husband, but i got a blessing either way with this game being when it is.”

Looking on the bright side, McDaniels said that all of his Rapids friends are excited that he is going to be there.

“I’m a bit of a father figure to them,” stated McDaniels. “I’m roughly 25 years older than most of my friends in the stands, but they don’t let that bother them. Some of them have started calling me dad, and well…. I mean honestly…. I just needed that.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as McDaniels loses service while trying to yell, “I love you,” at a phone screen.

Soccer Anarchists Attempt To Get New York Cosmos Into MLS In Order To Kill League

INTERNET - With the inevitable death of the NISA swirling around the nether reaches of the whirlpool of North American soccer, sources indicate that online and well funded soccer anarchists are formulating a plan to get the New York Cosmos into Major League Soccer (MLS) in an attempt to kill the league.

“We will have our revenge, FROM THE INSIDE," stated one anonymous commentator on 14chan, the online, anonymous forum set up for dissident soccer fans, relegation enthusiasts, low block organizers and Fozzie Bear tentacle erotica.

Comments on 14chan indicate that anarchist dissidents see the only way a total soccer revolution will be accomplished is by infiltrating MLS with the Cosmos which will inevitably cause MLS to fold as happened with the NASL, the MISL, the NASL again, the NPSL Founders Cup, the Members Cup and now the NISA.

Don Garber, the commissioner of Major League Soccer, was unexpectedly excited about the news of a third New York team.

“We have already contacted the New York teams that play in the general vicinity of the city and they are excited to see new rivalries enter the league,” stated Garber.” MLS is already planning on the Cosmos playing NYCFC 15 times for their inaugural season.”

For their part, the leadership of the New York Cosmos declined to speak but did want to remind everyone that Pelé, the worlds greatest player, played for the team once.

Braves Win Atlanta First Championship That People Care About Since 1995

Atlanta, GA - With a resounding 7-0 victory over the Houston Astros, the Atlanta Braves won Atlanta the first championship that random people in the city care about since 1995.

“I’m so glad we finally won something,” stated Carol Williams of Alpharetta. “It’s been a long dry spell between the 95 Braves, what with the Falcons constantly letting us down. It looked like there were 50 people celebrating something in the streets a few years ago in the city, but I think that was just Georgia fans celebrating a bowl bid.”

Our reporters spoke to people up and down Cobb County who stated that this championship reaffirmed their love of sporting teams slightly based in the general vicinity of Atlanta.

“We finally have a moment to celebrate in sports,” stated Jerry James Franklin of Kennesaw who was wearing a Make Atlanta Great Again hat. “This win is a win for all of Atlanta to show them that in order to succeed you need to move out to the suburbs. You can’t win a championship in an URBAN environment right now, no sir.”

Don Garber Leaves GAM Out For Trick Or Treaters

Montclair, NJ - Montclair resident Heather Anderson stated that her daughter Olivia reported that the Major League Soccer (MLS) Comissioner Don Garber left GAM out for trick or treaters, instead of candy.

Anderson’s daughter, who was dressed as a soccer ball, was shocked to get $10,000 of GAM instead of her favorite Reese’s Pieces. “This is the worst Halloween ever,” stated Olivia Anderson.

Mrs. Anderson was likewise confused by the situation as she explained, “I thought GAM was a new kind of candy bar, but this? Is this actual legal tender?”

We spoke to Commissioner Garber about the situation and he had the following to say, “Admittedly I had a lot of GAM just getting stale around the house, so why not give it to our insipid youth who need a nice serotonin boost during the holidays.”

Sources also indicate that the GAM wrapper had a note that asked people to politely consider Sporting Kansas City vs Minnesota United a rivalry.

Fan Is Just Looking For Some, "Like Minded Ultras Who Want To Use Flares And Don't Mind A Stadium Ban, Fine, And Possible Jail Time"

Oklahoma City, OK - Soccer fan Mark Andrews stated online that he is just looking for some, “like minded Ultras who want to use flares at soccer games and don’t mind the possibility of a stadium ban, a fine and jail time.”

Explaining, “Flares are totally fucking cool,” Andrews indicated that he wanted a bit more passion at games and he wanted to find some people who would be willing to go to the wall with their season tickets, next year, in order to improve the atmosphere.

“We would probably only need like 10 people a game for an entire home season, so like 200 or maybe even 300 people who are totally willing to not be able to watch a home game again for another year or two,” stated Andrews online.

“I think that we all know that this Ultra shit is totally cool and I’m just looking for some like minded people to go to the stadium for me who will be willing to do some badass things.”

Andrews request online elicited a number of positive responses from anonymous people he doesn’t know who don’t live in his area and have no actual experience going to soccer games as he began to curate his list of people who would actually be willing to show up.

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Andrews finds out he would be banned from both USL and MLS games.

Legacy Of Supporters Shield Falters As Scientists Indicate It Would Fail To Protect Against A Trebuchet Attack

Cambridge, MA - The legacy of the Supporter’s Shield faltered, today, as scientists with Harvard University indicated that the shield would fail to protect against a common Trebuchet attack as they viciously derided the shield as a protective measure.

WHAT KIND OF DEFENSIVE CAPABILITY DOES THIS SHIELD OFFER?!

“The first thing we must be aware is that, as a shield, it is too small,” stated Dr. Dave Thomas, professor of Armor and Heraldry. “We must understand that the idea of a small, circular shield giving enough coverage to an average man standing in the field facing down a trebuchet attack is absolutely preposterous.”

The Shield is a fan created and financed trophy awarded to the team with the best record in Major League Soccer.

However, modern pundits and scientists indicate that more thought should be given to the protective nature of the shield, as a whole.

“We are talking about Song dynasty soldiers with a trebuchet launching bombs of lime and sulphur against the ships of the Jin Dynasty navy during the Battle of Caishi,” stated Thomas. “You aren’t just going to stand out there with the supporters shield during such an attack. Li Quan didn’t write about the supporters shield defeating the mighty trebuchet.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as fans discuss whether the Supporter’s Halberd could actually eviscerate mounted combatants.

The show, written, directed and starring Carli Lloyd, has added new performances from November 9th to February 16th 2022 across the nation.

This is the final extension of the show, the producers said.

For those who cannot get enough of the farewell tour, sources indicate that Carli Lloyd: One Woman Against Korea will be released on streaming services soon.

MLS Announces Tag Team Grudge Match To Decide 1st Place With Tim Melia And The Rock Taking On Stone Cold Steve Austin And Cristian Roldan

NEW YORK - Today, Major League Soccer (MLS) announced a tag team grudge match to decide first place in the west with Tim Melia and The Rock taking on Cristian Roldan and ExtraTime pundit Stone Cold Steve Austin at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City.

Growling, “THERE WILL BE NO MERCY IN THE PARK THIS TIME, CHILDREN,” a jacked up Andrew Weibe handed the microphone to Melia who expressed that the Seattle Sounders were, “Jabronis, first and foremost, who needed a good SMACKDOWN…. if you smell what Melia is cookin.”

Sources indicate that the match will be a straight forward Tag Team match as Roldan escort Brian Schmetzer ruled out Ladders and Chairs.

However, the lack of dangerous implements at the fight did nothing to calm down the vitriolic trash talk from the players and pundits.

Roldan took to the microphone to challenge The Rock/Melia pairing stating that he was going to, “stomp a metaphorical mudhole in so-called Dwayne,” as he smashed a Coors Light flavored BODYARMOR can against his forehead and gave the camera the finger.

For his part, The Rock declined to be interviewed as he sent a publicist who stated that the former wrestler was currently in Zambia shooting scenes for a biopic on the life of David Livingstone.

Finally the microphone was given to ExtraTime Pundit Stone Cold Steve Austin who stated, “Stone Cold says that Cristian Roldan was in the right. What we see in this video is just the beginning. It’s not gonna be Mercy Park after we get done with this match because Austin 3:16 says that we are going to whoop your ass.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as VAR overturns Austin 3:16 after finding that it was one toenail over the line.

Literally Everything Ever In The Known Universe Depends Upon Result Of USMNT Game

Toledo, OH - USMNT super fan Deryk Jacobson stated that, “literally everything ever that has ever been in the known universe depends upon the result of the upcoming United States Men’s National Team (USMNT) game.”

“EVERYTHING IS IN PLAY,” stated Jacobson to The Nutmeg News. “My happiness! The future of soccer in the United States! The future of soccer locally! The future of the youth! The World Cup! The Gold Cup! The future of games in Columbus! The legacy of Tyler Adams! The legacy of Berhalter! The future of my relationship with Sarah! The discovery of cold fusion! The PRACTICAL USE OF THE OXFORD COMMA! Electricity without fossil fuels! A resolution to global warming! The disproportionate reporting on pandas! Dancing bears! Dancing Penguins! WHETHER WE USE A SASH IN OUR KIT IN THE FUTURE! It’s all to play for!”

Friends state that Jacobson has slowly but surely become more and more strident in his insane beliefs that these national team games have some relevance beyond the games themselves.

“THIS IS A STATEMENT,” ranted Jacobson to a computer screen as he actively commented on anything with a USMNT hashtag. “THIS WHOLE GAME IS A STATEMENT AND IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO EVERYONE ABOUT EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE OF OUR PLAYERS OVERSEAS WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE WORLD CUP IN 4 YEARS TIME UNLESS BERHALTER DOESNT PLAY OUR STARTING 11 TONIGHT WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE END OF TIMES AS WE ALL KNOW IT. DEAR GOD! HOW CAN WE LIVE THUS! NOMORESUMCONTROLLEDLEAGUEMLSSENDSOURBESTPLAYERSWHATABOUTPEPISTARTING!”

TFC Fan Accuses US Soccer Media Of Bias For Ignoring Toronto FC's Consistently Horrible Season

TORONTO - Toronto FC fan Philip Duprie took to Twitter and Facebook, today, to accuse the United States Soccer Media of bias for ignoring Toronto FC’s consistently horrible 2021 season.

"We've been terrible all season long and no one EVER wants to talk about us,” stated Duprie to The Nutmeg News. “It's always FC Cincinnati this and Houston Dynamo that, but WHAT ABOUT TORONTO?!"

Duprie’s online screed took aim at the, “United States Soccer Media Global Industrial Complex,” as he slammed them for ignoring the awful season of TFC and other Canadian Teams.

“Where’s our scathing indictments of our system and ownership,” stated Duprie. “Where are the think pieces about how awful 2021 has been for us? Where’s the pithy quips in the MLS Power Rankings? Where’s the discussion about our lack of effort in the MLS Ambition Guide?”

Duprie spared no organization as he focused on the lack of focus over his teams lack of focus during 2021.

“We have been consistently awful all season long, but we never get any credit for that,” ranted Duprie on his podcast. “If you look at the statistics, we are in contention for the wooden spoon and there’s nary a peep out there of how intense the race for the bottom is this season.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Duprie starts looking at the PPG for the remainder of the season to see if TFC have a chance at losing enough games to win the Wooden Spoon

General Manager Of Timbers Slams General Manager Of Thorns

Portland, OR - In a stunning move, Gavin Wilkinson, the General Manager of the Timbers, slammed Gavin Wilkinson, the General Manager of the Thorns, for their involvement in the Paul Riley scandal.

“I fully support the temporary suspension of Gavin Wilkinson from the Thorns,” stated Wilkinson to The Nutmeg News. “And I believe that in order to heal we must investigate, internally, what other parties in the league elsewhere other than here knew during that time.”

Wilkinson stated that he did not believe that Wilkinson’s behavior during the scandal and current uproar would hurt the Timbers brand as he indicated, “This is the Thorns we are talking about, not the Timbers. I’m the general manager of the Timbers, and there’s never been an abuse scandal in the Timbers organization that anyone has reported to the press, so far.”

“I believe in everyone getting a fair shake, and I support due process,” stated Wilkinson about Wilkinson. “We can suspend Wilkinson from the Thorns and that will allow us as a team to move forward towards reconciliation. I believe the facts will show that Wilkinson acted appropriately and I hope to continue working with my counterpart on the Thorns to ensure the safety of everyone in the organization.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this when nothing else happens.

Revolution Fan Concerned That Excellent 2021 Play Will Make Their Inevitable Loss In Postseason Even More Devastating

BOSTON - New England Revolution fan Chuck McGill stated that he was concerned that the excellent 2021 play of the team will make their inevitable loss in the postseason even more devastating as he thought back on all the seasons past.

“I was excited for 2002, and 2005. I was worried in 2006, perplexed in 2007 and just fatalistic in 2014,” stated McGill. “And now, at this point, I’m just concerned that this inevitable loss will only be more devastating to me.”

With the Revolution coming in second during five MLS Cup Finals, McGill stated that he is just waiting for the supporters shield season to be over in order to celebrate the achievement before pretending like the playoffs is, “a bunch of bullshit.”

“It’s not even a REAL test of your overall team,” stated McGill on Facebook. “It’s just a random number generator for teams that get lucky. It’s complete bullshit! We should have the winner of the league be the supporters shield and call it good. No playoffs anymore.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as McGill watches every game between the cracks in his fingers as he sits on his couch staring at the television waiting for the end.

"Someone Should Really Get The Portland Thorns Organization Under Control," States Owner Of Portland Thorns

Portland, OR - Releasing a letter to the general populace, Portland Thorns owner Merritt Paulson stated, “Someone should really get the Portland Thorns organization under control,” before adding that he was shocked, today, at the revelations that he received via email 6 years ago.

“Had I known at all today that I’d be reading about the relevations that I received 6 years ago my past self would be stunned,” stated Paulson in an open letter to fans. “I wouldn’t have sent fawning communications and general banter publicly to the man accused of abuse if I had known now what I knew then. That would just be considered insanely inappropriate.”

The Thorns owner then blasted the out of control culture of permissive toxicity that permeated the Thorns front office as he announced an investigation into whoever was responsible for the culture of the Thorns front office by, “whatever method I feel is best.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as the investigation started by the people who did the previous investigation finds that the previous investigation was valid.

Witty Soccer Fan Wakes Up To Find All The Landon Donovan Statue Jokes Taken

Seattle, WA - Witty soccer fan Ashley Haverbrook woke up, this morning, ready to make fun of the recent Landon Donovan statue only to find out that all the statue jokes were taken.

“Ah, goddammit,” muttered Haverbrook as she scrolled through her phone at all the jokes and takes that piled upon any original idea until it turned those good ideas into overwrought ideas run into the ground repeatedly that were good enough for a Bleacher Report video. “I was gonna have fun with this one.”

Haverbrook had to work late on Sunday and ended up trying to unwind at 11:45 pm while watching an episode of Community on Netflix thus causing her to not wake up until all the jokes were taken.

“Everything just moves so fast,” stated Haverbrook. “If you aren’t perpetually online when someone drops the picture of the insane Landon Donovan statue you miss the feast. By the time I came online all the lower tier Twitter accounts were fighting over the remaining viscera and the big accounts had drug away half a leg to gnaw on for the remaining 12 hours that this remains relevant.”

For her part, Haverbrook stated that she would attempt to be online more as she figures out a way to carve out time during her job and life to check in on Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook, and Discord in order to be relevant.

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Haverbrook experiences a severe uptick in depression.

Splitter Supporters Group Splits From Splinter Group After Splitter Group Argues That Splinter Group Has, "Become Everything We Fought Against"

Des Moines, IA - Splitter supporters group Paul’s Boutique announced, today, that they were splitting from the splinter group 125 Casuals that formed from other dissident members of the Des Moines Football Club supporters group South Stand Ultras as the sub-sub group lambasted the group’s group stating it has, “become everything we fought against.”

“I didn’t intentionally form a group of friends in one section of the stands that somewhat came from another group of friends in a larger portion of the stands to combat the original group of friends with a non-social, non-dues paying ultras collective to have it become the status quo responsible for the quiet death of the supporters group culture in the stands,” stated Paul’s Boutique member Ezra Hastings. “This was supposed to be the group that was loud and rowdy and instead we are having online meetings about chant sheets!”

Hastings split off the 125 Casuals from the South Stand Ultras due to their perceived lack of action on gameday as he attempted to create a unified front of people who, “want to be loud without all the drama.” However, he quickly realized that the politics and organization of the splinter group were too much like the parent group and so he started a splitter group off the splinter group that would allow him to take back control.

“The ultras were just not listening to those of us who want to push things,” stated Hastings. “And the Casuals were too much like the Ultras in the end. I’ll keep organizing sub-sub-sub groups until we are all lighting off flares with the giddy fervor of a Balkan terrace or I burn out and stay at home complaining about the people that won’t listen to me.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Hastings creates a new twitter account to announce that he is leaving his old twitter account as it has too many followers and has gone corporate.

"We'll Get Through This Together," States Chicago Fire Fan To The Remaining 5 People In His Section

CHICAGO - Chicago Fire supporter James Malcom attempted to rally the troops in his section by loudly proclaiming “We’ll get through this together,” to the remaining 5 people that sat dispersed near him.

“Nothing we haven’t been through before” said Malcom turning to someone he thought was there,” oh right forgot Allen left years ago.”

With the Fire holding Nashville to a enthralling 0-0 draw at home Malcom attempted to raise the energy as he turned to the empty seat next to him and exclaimed, “C’mon SEAN! LETS GET LOUD.”

“It’s kind of like Groundhog Day but for soccer,” said Malcom, painting a Wicky Out over his Pauno Out sign,” but we’re resilient I think.”

Section 8 Chicago was said to have reached out to get a gauge of who was coming to the upcoming anniversary party, and got 3 responses back, all of which asking about if they were the contact for housing.

We reached out to the supporters group and received the following response, “Games are still pretty fun, you get to see your friends you’ve been going through this forever with. Were gonna support this team no matter what,” which Nutmeg News only got as a quote because it was the Section 8 Chicago Director of Communications default voicemail.

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as soon as we get someone to return our calls from the Chicago Fire Front Office about the future plans to reinvigorate the team.

FC Cincinnati Announce That Future Manager To-Be-Named Has Also Been Relieved Of His Duties For The 2022 Season

Cincinnati, OH - FC Cincinnati announced, today, that their future manager to-be-named as Jaap Stam’s replacement has also been relieved of his duties from the 2022 season as they planned for the second succession out from the manager they will appoint to replace the interim manager at the end of the season.

“Whoever we hire in the future has already been removed from the position in the future and we would like to thank whoever they are for everything they have done for FC Cincinnati during their eventual time here,” stated the FC Cincinnati press release.

Reactions to the future move of removing the eventual ex-coach of FC Cincinnati were mixed as fans weren’t entirely certain how many games that the future coach would’ve lost at this time when the team fires him next year.

“Look, I need to know if we are on a 10 game losing streak or only a 5 game losing streak,” stated one FC Cincinnati fan. “I’m going to use a Ouji Board to find out our expected goals and tactics over the next year and a half to see whether I need to be upset about this or not.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as FC Cincinnati appoint a caretaker to replace the caretaker that they appointed from a mediocre European team in the future.

Beautiful Autumnal Morning Has Ebullient Steve Baldwin Asking, "What Else Can I Do To Screw Up The Washington Spirit"

WASHINGTON - Sources indicate that a beautiful autumnal morning has an ebullient Steve Baldwin asking, “what else can I do to screw up the Washington Spirit,” as the owner of the team looked at possibly taking away the access to water for the rest of the season.

“I feel so light and airy….. so fancy free….. perhaps if I increase practice to 8 hour sessions,” mused Baldwin to a reflection of himself in a full length mirror. “Or perhaps if I institute that Boy Will Be Boys can be the new HR policy of the team. OH THE THINGS I CAN THINK.”

Baldwin was increasingly spite filled but in a joyous way over his ownership of the National Women’s Soccer League team as he looked to escalate the situation in defiance of fans across the league asking him to sell.

“Sell the team, Steve? To Whom! No one wants a distressed asset! It’s all mine! ALL MINE! From now on we will be requiring all players to train using LuLaRoe leggings so that they can sell them to other players in the league on the side. From now on our training will be fueled by Huel meal replacement! THERE IS NO BOTTOM!

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as the NWSL considers shutting down the team.

USL League Two Fullback Excited To Get Game Time With MLS Team During Nations Cup

Bryan, TX - Fullback Jeff Richardson of Brazos Valley Cavalry F.C. in the United Soccer League League Two Mid South Division stated that he was excited to get some game time with an MLS team during the newly announced Nations Cup as MLS teams struggle to handle the minutes in the 43 competitions in which they will be playing.

“I’ve already been contacted about being ready to start for a few team in the league next season,” stated Richardson to The Nutmeg News. “I’m excited with the possibility of starting against Cruz Azul or Tigres when the teams that have contacted me decide to line up against a Liga MX team with players they scoured off the waiver wire and lower league teams due to the salary cap, roster rules, and complete indifference that repeatedly hamstring their teams.”

Sources indicate that the Houston Dynamo and FC Dallas may be two of the teams interested in having Richardson start at fullback as they indicate that they think they can get a scrappy 3-1 loss against Tigres with a mix of USL League 2 players and the deep reserves that they have on their roster.

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as owners and management claim they are going to take this seriously before injuries and fatigue have them rolling out US Open Cup level lineups.
