Nope.

But the Olympics are actually called the Olympic GAMES.

Yes. Like others have said playing for a long time does take it's toll and, you have to really concentrate. When it's a really good/important game it's really entartaining.

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???

You are a complete dickhead.

Kudos for dragging up this thread just to say that!

It is a pointless question, but one that is difficult to argue either way.

It all depends on what you regard as a sport, the dictionary definition is a physical activity that is governed by rules. Darts has rules, but it can hardly be classed as physical. Darts in my opinion especially at an amateur level isn't a sport but merely a pastime, and of course that can be argued with playing football with mates or a round of golf with a couple of pals.

There can be no conclusive argument from any side, but ultimately darts is a competitive activity, like any other so therefore should fundamentally be regarded in the same way.

In the end the argument isn't worth anything, darts being regarded as/as not a sport is hardly going to change the attitudes of those who love to play and watch it and those who done't.

There's LOTS of sports that can be aimed at. Physical ones included.

No doubt of that, and that's why I went on to comment that the same can be argued for football or golf etc.
