Michael van Gerwen the closest thing since Taylor, but even his 'dominance' hasn't been that dominant (he's not even world number 1 at the moment). But that's testament to how much more competitive the game has become across the board (no pun intended).
with the top faces being largely unchanged for years and very few young players seemingly coming through, it’s a little hard too see Snooker’s future. I guess young lads who used to bunk off school and play snooker now bunk off and play video games.
I feel as though Ronnie is at his most dangerous when he goes through a tournament saying things like he hates snooker and doesn't know why he bothers.

The standard of Snooker these days, across the board is just absurd.
Same with the darts
That thin touch on the red was something else.
I’ve never got into darts, is there a Ronnie level genius I could get behind?
You just know Ronnie’s thinking 147 here.
Damn.
Absolutely amazing.
Superb!
Some poor sod on the sideline just got absolutely crunched in the Lions - Saints game https://twitter.com/AryePulli/status/1731391665913384978?t=QE9YY4ZN9qdaM23r95wxzQ&s=19
I can't think of anyone comparable
Mind you I can't think of anyone comparable in any sport ever
Phil the Power Taylor dominated darts for 20 years. He’s been retired a while now though.

Some of the lady darts chuckers are incredible as well
There were loads of Chinese youngsters but most of them have been banned for illegal betting.
Sherrock gets all the media attention, I think Beau Greaves will be an awesome player in a year or two.
Just finished the Ronnie O'Sullivan documentary, highly recommended. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt29715313/

Genius.
And then he quickly changes his mind when he looks at his bank statement!
The New York Jets and Houston Texans manage the first scoreless first half in the NFL for four years
The first quarter was all punts. What a sport!
Vikings - Raiders 0-0 in the LAST QUARTER
Anyone else been watching the darts?
Yeah somebody threw one and it hit me in the leg from about 20 metres away. It really hurt!
Keep it to yourself please @ReturnToSenda but I’ve been watching the European Cricket Tournament on YouTube.
Proper lolled at this.
Was it Michael Owen? https://twitter.com/HITCSevens/status/1737475387133706468?t=aHGkdv5ttgoAxDOYRkzfTA&s=19
you got it!
anybody else notice how he seems to be morphing into David Seaman?
Missed this - annoying that a FG was kicked right before the end. A 0-0 would have been hilarious!
And Alan Partridge in personality
