MLS 2020 Season May Never End After Schedule Makers Book COVID Postponed Games After MLS Cup

NEW YORK - Schedule makers for Major League Soccer (MLS) indicated that the 2020 season may never end after they were forced to book COVID postponed games after MLS Cup.

Look, it has a mad face. Now do you understand the threat?

“There’s only so many games a team can play in a week or a month,” stated one anonymous schedule maker. “At some point we have to start booking all these Rapids, Minnesota United, Orlando City, Columbus Crew and Real Salt Lake games after MLS Cup.”

With some of the games postponed and others in danger of being postponed, the schedule became so backlogged that there was no way forward.

“What, do you expect Colorado to have to play 10 games in 10 days?” stated one source. “Because at some point there’s a breakover where we just have to move the current 2020 games to January or February. They might still be playing out the 2020 season at the start of the 2021 season. There’s no telling how far this goes.”

Sources indicate that the league is exploring all possibilities other than having COVID positive teams forfeit games including having a B team play closed door games, using Football Manager to simulate results and/or having a televised game of socially distanced cornhole.

“If this doesn’t change we are going to be having doubleheaders,” stated our source. “So I just hope we aren’t having to go back and retroactively add teams to the playoffs after MLS Cup. That would be awkward.”

The Nutmeg News will have more on this as some teams intentionally test positive in order to move games to the end of the year.
