John has decided that while he's injured (having watched Luke Littler in the Final) he's going to take up professional darts as a sideline! 🎯
'Luke the Nuke' had better watch out as 'Stones the Testosterone' is obviously aiming to win another trophy for his cabinet!!🏆😉🤣
Drinking Feat Of The Week
Professional darts has gone a long way to cleaning up its act since the days when it featured rather obese chaps quaffing beer and puffing fags as they stood at the oche throwing arrows at a board. Nevertheless, old habits die hard even if they have migrated to the crowd, as events at this year’s PDC World Darts Championship held at Alexandra Palace revealed. Nathan Aspinall stopped play before…

So I watching professional dart on TV right now. Just gotta say that it's actually quite entertaining, and as a bonus it has the possibility for me to be good at it, as it doesn't require me to be physically fit. So I really like watching darts. Just watch it and you'll understand. Handball is still better though.
What if I'm the world's greatest dart player and I just didn't know it?
I've thought about this a lot.
What if I'm insanely great at something, but had no idea about it? What if I'm the Wayne Gretzky of darts? I never play darts, but whenever I do, I'm quite good. Why, then, do I rarely play? Am I afraid of being the Gretzky of darts?
For Wayne, it was easy, he didn't waste time with other things like learning how to ace typing or learning shorthand. For me, I'm just trying everything and seeing how it goes. I think I'm finally zeroing in on something, but it's darts.
A few months ago I hung out with 2 hipster-party girls - the kind who only dress in black and wear those boots that witches wear. I didn't know them previously and met them at a bar in Vancouver. They asked if I wanted to play/throw darts with them. I thought, this would be a good way to meet some girls.
I asked what kind of rules were involved, which is my way of pretending I know how to play. The one girl, who strictly talked about her new hair color and the meds she was on (platinum grey /Paroxetine), explained some weird rules that I didn't really listen to and the game begun.
It took me probably less than 20 throws to get warmed up. I'd say I was good to go at around throw 12, granted, I was a bit lubricated -- on my 3rd beer. Throw # 18 (or so) was a bullseye. I shocked the unshockable girls I was partying with. The game next to us kind of stopped and everyone was impressed with my abilities. I felt a bit like an impostor but I was okay with it. Like Elvis when he visited Forrest Gump's house.
I was a bit scared of my new found abilities. I had questions. Is it rare to get a bullseye? It didn't seem that hard. I found out quickly what my method was going to be in terms of chuckin' that needle in the air. Were the 7 years of baseball I played a lead up to this bullseye? What other shit was going on that I was unaware of? Was this a notoriously difficult turf to play on? Are there any drink prizes available for bullseyes?
I thought back to my basement growing up. There was a dart board, but it was pretty cheap, and the darts had plastic wings, not the fancy ones with the Union Jack on the end of them. The fact we had a dart board probably helped my luck. I probably could have fixed it up and trained for hours on it, becoming perhaps the world's greatest dart thrower/player.
I didn't though. I spent my time on the Internet instead. Sure, I have this weird encyclopedic (read: Wikipedic) knowledge of the web, but I could be on the dart throwing circuit right now making real some real cash, like Ted Hankey, two-time World Professional Darts Champion.
I really need to find out if this is my thing. I've spent 26 years trying to figure this out, and this is the best thing I've got going. If anyone knows Ted Hankey's contact number, I'd really appreciate if you can put a good word in for me.
