if the "walk" (pretend running) is allowed then surely darts should be. Even the shooting, what a load of crap that is. Im un sure, but what happened to the shooting where the player is outside, and theres random discs thrown from a machine in any direction, and they shoot them from there?? Is that still an olypmic sport??

How these people can call themselves athletes is beyond me.

They are not allowed to drink alcohol during the play which is fair enough as it has massive TV coverage these days. Whilst dart players may not be athletic figures the hand eye coordination needed is extermely high as is the hours and hours of practice to fine tune their accuracy! If how you looked was essential then we would not have weightlifting, discuss or shot put!
In fact in comparison to similar types of sport which get a run at the Olmpics - Archery and Shooting, darts is probably harder in reality as they have no object to hold or steady them to fire the projectile at the target. A dart has to actually be thrown by the participant not fired by an object / machine for want of a better word held by the participant.
