    Grand Slam of Darts

    Is currently at the semi-final stage.

    It could be actually seen as the unofficial world title as all the best players from the PDC and BDO/WDF (apart from Martin Adams) and has had some amazing darts.

    Surprisingly, the BDO guys have not been blown away as expected with 4 guys in the Quarters and 1 in the semi (one quarter between two BDO guys).

    It is missing the commentary of Sid Waddel and Taylor looked suspiciously shit in the first 6 legs of his Quarter before stepping up and blowing away his adversery.

    They even had a 9 darter by a guy who went on to lose.
    Darts is one of the best television sports out there.

    Oh, and what has happened to Jellie Klasson, he seems to have fallen off the radar having won the BDO a couple of years ago.

        The ITV coverage of it, though, has left a LOT to be desired. Not in the general presentation, but in the coverage of the action. They need to get a better counter in to direct the cameramen. Half the attempts at high out shots tend to end up looking more like scene buffers from NYPD Blue.

        As regards Les Wallace, "McDanger" is absolutely the best sporting nickname of all time. For pure, genius, stupidity, it's hard to top. My other favourite darts nickname is "Darth Maple". Same reason. Tenuous link to the player's nationality coupled with a totally empty implication of threat.

          The black girl they have doing the interviews is extremely hot.
          Wouldn't mind going a few legs with her.
