The more actual news outlets, the better. Unfortunately, the Russian government and others have figured out how to bombard our low information population with cleverly packaged disinformation disguised as news with no basis in fact.
After this post, you're deciding others as low information. Seriously, the Russians are after Brett and Gina? This is tin foil hat stuff.

Who but Joe Biden puts a failed banker and ex-governor of a state with the lowest ranking in the country for business climate in charge of.......commerce? Biden, Harris and Raimondo. What can possibly go wrong?
Looks like no wins so far for the Rhode Island “Football Club”. Then I noticed that the dates are all messed up. Instead of the American MM/DD/YY format we’re all familiar with, they use DD/MM/YY, as if we’re in the UK/Europe. This after they insist on calling it football, instead of soccer. Why do they hate America?

You're on an international site, where American soccer represents a very small fraction of the world's leagues and you're upset that terrible rest of the world doesn't use American conventions? Odd hill to die on.
RIFC (an American team calling itself football tsk tsk) has won a game. They beat Las Vegas Lights 2-1. They also drew their Open Cup game in full time but lost in penalty shots.
I'd give their record but that site goes European style W-D-L and I wouldn't want your head to explode.. They've had a lot of draws this season, more than losses anyway.
Did you hear they signed Isaac Angking? Not the RI lad I was hoping for - Damien Rivera - but I'm still hopeful. He had some brief but good outings for the Revs, but I'm afraid he hasn't come close at all to achieving the potential people saw in him early on.

Ah, they do have a win. I stand corrected. Still, I would expect a site that has the good sense to name itself “ soccerway.com”, and which had the forethought to don a Star Spangled Banner badge for US users, would have the good sense to display dates as American audiences expect.
I just don’t know why a sport that wants to make a header into America doesn’t speak the local tongue. In fact, I think many of the few American fans thrive on that quirk. It’s all a little too precious for the general American public.
