Portland, OR - Portland Thorns fan Hannah Willis stated that she was really regretting the wish she made for more NWSL off-season action as the team and journalists announced a number of trades of popular players.
Oh……………………………………………. yeah, no.
“Ok, when I said that this weekend I didn’t really mean it,” stated Willis to The Nutmeg News. “I was just getting bored with the lack of news from the league or any of the teams that are in it. At this point, I would like to go back to the time where I was bored.”
Friends state that Willis was ranting about how the off-season is too long and that none of the teams in the league were making moves as she attended a friends house for dinner on Saturday.
“I don’t know what she thought was going to happen, but I can guarantee it wasn’t this,” stated good friend Abby Brockhurst.
For her part, Willis stared at her phone for 10 minutes after the trade news hit before putting it down and opening up her work email as she attempts to forget about the loss of Emily Sonnett, Caitlin Foord and Midge Purce.
The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Willis composes 5 different Twitter drafts about the situation before deleting all of them and logging off the application and deleting it from her phone.
