Oakland Athletics

~~~~Let's Go Oakland!~~~ Beat the Tampa Bay Rays! 50,000 fans heading your way to watch you play, In this very exciting Wild Card Game. There will be no hearings as to who won the game, Nor, if Russia colluded to put you to shame! That's what I like about sports, it is win or lose!! And~honey! Three strikes and you're out.... There is no sour-puss losing, The winning is clear and that is the end! Champions know how to accept a win or a defeat. Losers love the word, "cheat." October 2, 2019
