"I DON'T CARE," said Mr. Heartford repeatedly to everyone that would listen. "I seriously don't care. The season ended a long time ago. I'm looking into the players we are going to keep, the players we are going to let go and another year of Sigi at the helm. I don't care."

"I'm not sure why he is so defensive," said girlfriend Jasmine Delecroix. "I just said good morning to him on Monday and he screamed, 'I DON'T CARE' before he apologized."

While friends say that this is likely a coping mechanism by Mr. Heartford he stuck to his guns repeating, "I still don't care. I DON'T. HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT I DON'T CARE."

The Nutmeg News will have more from Mr. Heartford as he plans a litany of taunts provided that Columbus wins MLS Cup.
