And it bloody well is a sport. It's a smaller version of archery. Given the propensity for darts to be played in drinking establishments, perhaps it should be a pint-sized version of archery.

The fact that there is no bow makes it more skilful and sporty. Imagine those archers throwing those arrows, eh? They couldn't, losers.

Because you do not HAVE to change your shoes, it is not a sport!

Stix, you seem to have acquired a shoe fetish.

But it's OK, shoe fetishism is a fast growing world-wide sport.

But if the person wearing the fetishized shoes does not take them off, does that mean we are no longer talking about a sport? Discuss, citing specific examples.

But they will have put them on at some point meaning they must have taken them off at some juncture. sticksman can provide photographic evidence if required. Although I'm still not convinced of the link between shoe changing and sport. In the meanwhile darts firmly remains a sport.

They show darts on Sky Sports. The clue is in the name. SPORTS.

How about this? If you are throwing the darts at a round board with a bulls-eye in the middle, then it is a sport. If you are throwing the darts at a drunken sailor who has just cussed you out, then it is a salt.
