Such whiny babies. Cancel culture is for dim witted morons.

Cancel culture? Have you even read the report?? This was sexual harassment, covering up obvious violations, and intimidation, homophobic remarks to gay players. Get the fuq out of here with cancel culture. These as-holes need to go back to the hole they crawled out of.
we should cancel all of the *****s like these degenerates.

good riddance. And it’s the free market at work. The fans are pissed and you wait and see how many boycott and disrupt the status quo. Sponsors will run for the hills and Merritt’s trust fund will dry up faster than Lehman Bros under his Daddy’s watch.

want to know how young Merritt got the team?? Daddy…want to know where Daddy got the money? TARP, and tax abatements by Portland. So technically tax payers should own a big chunk of this team anyway.

Merritt needs to go back to Chicago where this kind of corruption is tolerated.
He shouldn’t be allowed to own a team in either league ever again.

You sound like you need help. I hope you find the support you're looking for someday, Karen.

Paul Riley has absolutely nothing to do with who my daughter plays for. I don't make my parenting decisions based off the incompetencies of a soccer organization. My daughter plays with her friends and for a coach who I like and respect. If that's a problem for you, then I really don't know what to tell you.

When you're done making such a huge difference in our society by posting on this anonymous platform, maybe you can go be a decent parent and check in on your kid for once. Toodeloo!

Your daughter probably plays with the coach. Since you are such a dip-sh:t.
and based on your personality my guess is your daughter doesn’t have friends.
I base this mostly on your use of the slang word “toodeloo”. You seem super creepy

Soccer coach here. I can assure you that kids are not talking about this. At least not at my trainings.

What has transpired is an atrocity and I hope that justice continues to be served, but the most important thing we can do for our youth is to ensure that they continue to enjoy the beautiful game of soccer. The field can be a sanctuary for them and should be treated as such.

Soccer coach here - all my kids and families are talking about this.

Wrong. My 17 year old Son who escaped from TA has been talking about it. He expressed that he was not surprised given how the Timber's viewed and treated their youth players.

Tell me you are a Karen, that doesn't understand or know what a Karen is...without telling me that you are a Karen that doesn't understand or know what a Karen is. Looking forward to her repsonse where she accuses people of gaslighting her.

[QUOTE=Guest;n4391829]Honest question. What would happen to the Thorns Academy in particular, if he sells the franchises? He is really the only reason that they have taken on that effort because of his kids, etc.

Hopefully it goes away, the better for your daughter. So the abuse will stop. And don’t think that Paulson is running an academy so his kids can play. Wake up. Your kid is not that special to anyone except you and perhaps her grandparents.

There is no affiliation to the Thorns Pro club anymore. Other than his daughter plays for 08…with questionable merit (no pun intended).
They are a standalone organization. But I think they will eventually fail anyway, mostly due to really poor business management by the club. They combined with FC Portland to survive.

Soccer coach with no kids of their own, likely. All the kids are talking about. Making for some tough convos

ECNL will follow and so will MLS Next.

powerful voices in Soccer are distancing from Merritt Paulson.

Big corporate sponsors are fleeing.

it’s over. He should sell before they lose all of their value

GW isn’t employed

GW isn’t employed

Yes- he was always terminated 12 months ago as Thorns GM yet still worked in the same office doing the same duties. These guys are morally and criminally corrupt. They run this state and are the underbelly of the soccer world be it youth or beyond. SB is no different only to keen to spout the Timbers alliance brand. The guy is best buddies with all of that mob it's rotten all the way through.

also, not always^
