There is beauty in dominance.
In inevitability.
For example, consider the years where Tiger Woods was inevitable. Every time he hit a tee shot, you expected the ensuing “Tiger Twirl” of the club.

We appreciated the dominance of the moment, a master of his craft who made every week exhilarating, even if it was inevitable.

After six seasons and coming off a trip to the second round of the playoffs, the Knicks and general manager Scott Perry will part ways this summer, according to SNY’s Ian Begley.

Then again, A’s fans barely have enough enjoyment going to these games … so why not.
In the running for one of the worst MLB teams to ever hit the field, the 2023 Oakland A’s are a misery case that only gets worse. And on Tuesday, one fan showed just how laissez-faire this franchise is about being taken seriously within pro baseball.
Footage surfaced of a fan jumping over the fence separating the seats and the field at the Oakland Coliseum.
