I don’t even pretend to understand televised darts.

Game on. Two big fat blokes – neither of whom can tuck their shirts into theirs trousers – take it in turns to waddle up to a target, and throw three arrows each at an area the size of a postage stamp, while a crowd of half wits bay like banshees and a some gobby tw@t with a mike attempts to communicate the score whilst simultaneously doing an impression of Lloyd Grossman.

How is this interesting?

O.k. they have an uncanny ability to hit treble twenty, and equally uncanny ability to just miss the same target with every alternative throw. This might even have a certain interest for the first couple of rounds, but unfortunately the same unrelenting exercise in meaningless futility is repeated ad nauseum to the apparent fascination of the audience of drunken Neanderthals. And all this with an accompanying and deafening hyperbole. Two blokes pissing up a wall might actually be more interesting.

There is a sort of collective orgasm if one fatty actually hits the target with all three darts. One huuunndrrreed annnd eiiighhhty !!!! And near hysteria if another Jimmy Five-Bellies then hits a relevant double to finish.

The maths is impressive, but since when has adding and subtracting been a television sport?

The women are all harridans, the men - grotesque tetrapods - more likely to return to the sea than achieve anything of any significance in this or any other lifetime.

Not bad though........

Unprompted, my hairdresser today complained about having to watch darts last night, and gave comment that its not a sport. You have it officially from a hairdresser now - she confirms darts is not a sport.

well,I stand corrected.I cannot argue a sporting matter with a hairdresser.
