.if someone could w@nk for 4 hours in front of a crowd baying "Let's play w@nking" - would that make w@nking a Sport ?
What would happen if a thread on that subject was moved to Muppets

Further proof here that in a bunch of old men (the BDO) a young talent shines through. The Sport continues to move forward, and if you want to succeed, you have to take care of yourself as you'll be nothing more than a has been in "yesterdays game".

Proof that it's moved on.
I suggest the rest take note as they will be left where darts was 10 years ago....
Darts has developed - can they??

Physiological control is easier the fitter you are.

One things for sure.
If talking bollox was a sport ScoobyNet could produce several world class sportsmen
.
So the next time slimboy looses to a fat b@st@rd darts will no longer be a sport in the eyes of the "enlightened" !
We'll see if he can defend his title and stay off the booze !
