    Did you really need to post that right now in the middle of the darts final discussion? You could have posted that tomorrow.

    No issues with discussing it on this thread, but that was a poorly timed post.

    I posted it just after I saw the news. Didn't realize the darts was on.

    Maybe, but this board needs its own thread given the interest of many contributors.here to F1. Perhaps it could include Moto GP?

    How on earth has a 16 year old developed such a girth?

    This is why there shouldn't be an issue with NFL being discussed on here. It's for general sports discussion. I appreciate not everyone likes NFL but not everyone likes F1, or rugby, or athletics, or tennis.

    Because the sport he plays and has no doubt trained hard from a very young age requires very little physical exertion!

    I heard he snacks out on pizza and omlette. In contrast, the other Luke was much slimmer.

    Luke Humphries used to struggle with his weight, seeked help with his confidence and weight issues ……got the help he needed, stuck with it, and now won 4 out of the last 5 majors.

    Why does it matter when someone posts something about a sport they are interested in ?

    I couldn’t care less about darts , but I appreciate lots do .

    if I had wanted to post something about F1 / NFL / or whatever , I would post it even if I knew something was taking place at the time , like a darts final .

    Darts isn't really a sport either if we're honest. We only class it as a sport here as we're a nation of piss heads.
