It was on the news this lunchtime that darts might be in the next Olympics. This is because it is gaining popularity around the world, especially in China. Good, eh?

If they can put beach effing volleyball and tennis in, then it's all just fecked up anyway, so why not darts, that well known apogee of human achievement and athleticism? Bah.

And with the recent spending on Olympic venues, I'm sure a world-class darts complex can be constructed for the economical price of five billion dollars, working toilets excluded.

It's all coming together nicely. And, why not? Let's Play Darts, as they say.

301, start and finish on a double. Closest to the bull to see who starts. Yeah?

I throw barbs at a lot of people, and most of what I say is bullshit. Is that close enough?

The card game Bridge is "arguably" a sport and could qualify for lottery funding, a High Court judge has found.
Mr Justice Mostyn said the game could be said to be a legitimate sport under English law.
So darts is definitely a sport then!

Thanks for opening up the debate again stix. I think you'll find public opinion is turning in favour of darts being classified as a sport worthy of recognition in Olympian sized proportions.

Or is that the Olympic sized proportions of the "sportspeople" in Darts?

No, not necessarily, in the modern game. But fat people can be glorious too. Go figure. Go fuller figure. We can be what we want to be.
