PHOTO: Is this the best photo in MLS history? Yes, yes it is
Jozy Altidore has endured. Playing for a bad team, surrounded predominantly by sub-par players and exhibiting incredible futility in front of goal with just one tally in 42 matches, the American striker's time at Sunderland was an unmitigated disaster.
So you'll have to forgive him if he's enjoying the change of scenery, now plying his trade for Toronto FC.
The big attacker got off to a dream start with his new team on Saturday, topping his output from his Sunderland days in only 90 minutes by scoring a pair of goals in Toronto FC's 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps in each club's season opener.
His second marker of the contest, a Panenka penalty in the 90th minute to secure the victory, spawned what very well could stand up as the best photo of the year, in any sport.

So much hate. So much trolling. So much win.
