You could have added a few more sports while you were at it

Golf...the ability to walk,smoke and eat you're way around a park.

F1... the ability to drive and sweat

Horse Racing...the ability to be an anorexic midget that can hit a horse with a stick...

Wrestling....the ability to be an drug fuelled,coconut oiled,muscle ripped arsehole who can stick to a script for half an hour whilst cuddling another poof in their pants in a pre-determined sketch,then go home and massacre the wife and kids..Generally viewed by children or by sexually confused men from the comfort of their disco glittered balled adorned closet......

No offence,like.....anymore???

No.
It's getting kind of hard to believe things are going to get better. I've been drowning too long to believe that the tide is going to turn. And I've been living too hard to believe things are going to get easier now. I'm still trying to shake off the pain from the lessons I've learned. And if I see Van Helsing, I swear to the lord I will slay him. AHA HA HA. He take you from me but I swear I won't let it be so. AHA HA HA. Blood, will run done his face, when he is decapitated AH! His head on my mantle is how I will let this world know...how much I love you.

It's not a fcuking sport. It's a game. GAME, folks, GAME. Same as cards, chess, tiddlywinks and Hungry Hippos.

A GAME (for mostly alcoholic fat people).

Is asking whether "Darts is a sport" a sport because it seems to be a monthly occurrence on here <_<

In my opinion it is a sport, as is snooker or bowls.

Not sure why people are so obsessed with this question.

You've basically summed up why Golf is the best sport in the world.

In all seriousness, I'd say golf is a sport even if it isn't the most strenuous and tbh, after 36 holes I'm very stiff the next day, it can't be easy playing 18 four days running so often.

This has been done far too many times.

Do you pay tax if you win a connect 4 tournament? No.

Do you require any skill to play monopoly? No.

The answer with darts is yes to the above.

Darts is actually a VERY hard sport to play. It's taken me over a year to get to a point where I'm even hitting my targets with anything close to semi-regularity.

While it doesn't require much in the way of movement, it does require SOME level of fitness at the highest level as you're up there for quite some time, and playing darts for a really long time does take a toll, as well as testing the concentration quite a bit.

Of course it's a sport.

Sorry for trying to use any form of logic. You're obviously too thick to understand.

Yes, just. It has a physical aspect beyond picking up a pint and lighting a fag.

Couldn't find it


Darts is actually officially recognized as a sport. This is the actual answer to your question. Whether you like that answer or not is your problem.
