topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I've no beef with traditional rugby. If blokes from Yorkshire want to roll around in the mud with each other then who am I to stop them. And there we have it, American rugby is less of a sport than darts (which is a pub game). Sorted. A top level Quarterback runs the constant risk of physical injury Whether this applies to darts players depends on quite how rough the pub you're playing in is.

Darts players are far more likely to get injured by a flying tumbler or falling pished down the stairs as they don't have helmets or big shoulder pads to protect them.

Gaz Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 The first time I saw Indoor League was when it was mentioned on here a couple of years back. I nearly soiled myself laughing at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernJambo Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Half a dozen Indians playing Tig in a tennis court. Regardless of who's playing it where, it's not a sport. Yet, there's been times I've seen it being shown live on sky sports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
