End the pain with Payne?

It seems that Toronto FC are on the verge of hiring Kevin Payne of DC United to be their team president. He has stepped down from his role in Washington and official word of his Toronto appointment is expected.
I had commented that the recent town hall meeting raised questions about the front office alignment. If the questions were "who is in charge?" and "who does the firing when things continue to slide?", we may have our answer very soon. Kevin Payne.

On one hand, sir, you will find Torontonians more than a little sceptical that an American is the answer to what ails TFC. On the other hand, you are not Tom Anselmi.
