After showgirls in G-strings, gambling and drinking the night away, when I think of the Professional Darts Corporation’s (PDC) Las Vegas Desert Classic what comes to mind first (well, fourth) is fantasy baseball camp.
On a Saturday afternoon there ain’t a damn thing better then grabbin’ a …

Chengdu, China
Fly two hours north from where I threw darts last night and you’ll be shiverin’ in a Mongolian snow drift. Head the same distance due west and you’ll be walkin’ to the board through goat dirt.
