ADO Publishes Board Meeting Minutes!
In keeping with President David Hascup’s commitment to fix the American Darts Organization (ADO) and Communication Officer Steve Brown’s promise to improve communications, the Minutes of the most recent Board of Director’s meeting were recently posted to the ADO website. I could be mistaken, …

Dear Miles:
Your dad says I can’t send you beer or pornography so it’s his fault you are just receiving this boring letter…

Climbing Mt. Fiji
If you follow darts (if you don’t but do follow Dartoid’s World then you’ve been caught red-handed ogling Double Out girls) you’ve probably heard of Stacy Bromberg. She’s been US #1 for 39 of the past 16 years, has raised $40 million for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, …

Leo Durocher never met Leong Hwa
Okay, lighten up. This will not be another “Old Geezer Tale.” The last effort in that direction brought a silence that was deafening. This effort will look at one Leong Hwa. Darts players around the world known him as Paul Lim. As an …

“It seems like déjà vu all over again…”
The similarities between the current stirrings about the American Darts Organization (ADO) and a situation at the Minuteman Dart League (MMDL) some years ago are startling. Have a read…

A Geezer’s Tale
When the Old Dart Coach signed his multi-year six-figure contract with Dartroid’s World one of the stipulations was that he deliver at least two columns per month. “No hill for a climber,” one might say. The landscape has changed. The PDC is kind of scratched off …

Where’s there’s smoke there’s fire!
Smoke is billowing about the private ADO “empire” like at Hamas House on a crisp mid-summer’s eve.

If I were president of the American Darts Organization…
I’d go rogue.
I’d take BOLD ACTION today.

You Might be a Darts Addict if…
Okay…
You might be a redneck if you think a family reunion is a good place to pick up girls. You might be Jewish if your greatest athletic achievement was in debate. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and a $5,000 …

So, you think Phil Taylor is through?
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” It’s then written that she said, “Let there be light.” That was followed with her creation of the world. It’s not that she didn’t have a blueprint to work from. In her …
