There’s no reason to celebrate just yet, but there might be in just a few short months.
It’s August 24th, and Toronto FC is the top team in Major League Soccer’s Eastern Conference. If that doesn’t mean something to you, then consider yourself lucky, you’ve missed the nine years of brutal soccer that led up to this point.
The fact that it’s August is relevant for two different reasons. The first being that this is by far the latest that Toronto FC has been this high in the standings. The second, which puts everything into context, is that it’s still only August, and it will be October when Toronto FC’s season is truly judged.
