No action shots in this batch BOOOOO

Why did the Daily News put clown make up on him? That's just bizarre.

Those last two are pretty terrible, almost for opposite reasons.

So did this gif a product of a print-to-digital scan, rather than the original digital file? Because I'm suspecting this came from the first batch printed after the ink cartridge had just been replaced, or some modification has either recently been made too aggresively or not made at all.

Beyond the sloppy makeup, look at the vividness of his hat and shirt! The Post photo is from nearly the same moment and the blue isn't nearly as damaging to the retina.

I'm only voting for 1 unless I'm really conflicted and the Mr Metrics is so borderline deranged that I couldn't but vote for it.
