Surprise another fucking useless group of letters claiming to be a darting org to promote the sport. Every stupid useless cunt who has an idea and can create a facebook page and blog has created an org that will change the American dart scene. The only thing they do is add to a growing list of fuktards stroking their ego and wasting band width with shitty websites that provide no information. The one thing they all have in common is a complete lack of money, capital backing, or a quality source of revenue. Yet they all seem fucking deluded enough to think they can go ahead and implement whatever stupid useless idea they have. It is as if these useless cunts have never cracked open their biz 101 text book.
Had a "discussion" with some whackjob elsewhere the other week (after the PDC Las Vegas gig) who seemed to believe that that's exactly what's needed. He basically pushed the line that the PDC only wants to get into the US market to take American darts players' money, and that "somebody" needs to step up and create a purely American tour for American players. He didn't bother to explain who that somebody ought to be, how this proposed tour was supposed to make money, or how it's going to create the TV opportunities that he more or less said American darters are entitled to.
First the American dartplayers dont have money nor can they generate interest enough to get some.
Second we had an Americans only tour funded by the PDC/unicorn, promised 3 years worth of money. The useless cunts running the thing pissed the lot away in less than 2 years.
For some reason these idiots over here think the PDC is interested in running events here like the ADO piss up. They don't get the P is for professional, the PDC isn't interested in darts participation for the masses. Darters here have the mentality every amateur has the right to be playing right next to the proven top players in every event because they can afford it. How is that approach working out for the BDO?
Add to this they think the top players here are capably of playing at the standard the top players there are. They also believe that the American darts is something people are interested in watching. The fact is the standard is miles apart and people other than BDO mushrooms dont want to watch some plonker throw an 86 avg. Hammering big scores and big outs is where the excitement is for viewing irrespective of what the audience knows about darts.
Soft tip mentality of everyone should be competing for money has ruined players as they all think at their own level they should be getting a check regardless of how shitty of a player they are. And what are they playing for? Some title of the no name piss up open. There is no prestige in any of these events and very few top players are interested in competing overseas. Those that are can't even win enough prize money in the qualifying events to get there. Unless it is a PDC event they can afford to get there but they are just showing up for the first round fodder and they act like they are ok with that.
What they don't realize is you can't get interest or investors in darts here because of long history of morons failing at every turn. Little or nothing to do with the drinking image. Ok maybe for a few but those healthy conscience sponsors wouldn't be investing in darts anyways.

Not that I have heard, it just quietly disappeared off the map after 2013, when the World Series expanded. No room in the calendar for it anymore even if they wanted to bring it back

pdj championship going on now.
(it's a Japanese pdc tournie. walk-ons, theme songs, walk-on girls, 180 cards...the whole bit)
16 players. started just a while ago.
siego asada just won. (2nd match)
interestingly, the winner of this pdc affiliated stuff, besides eventually playing in the pdc worlds, gets an invite into the soft tip superdarts tournie (for big money). remember when it used to be the other way around.
