KNOB OF THE WEEK

PDC Comms

Saturday evening I decided to watch the second day of the Dutch Exbo, and it was quality darts but the commentary continues to get worse, Its now at the point I might have to mute all darts going forward. First up was the battle of the Lukes and posted this

 
The commentary got progressively worse after we were told Doets's win over a washed up Peter Wright who averaged 81, in a non ranking exbo that means nothing was, the "best win of Doets life". Seriously ? A win in an exbo trumps everything ?

John McDonald told us how Gian Van Veen in his debut year reached the "Quarter finals"...in other words he won a single game. I get the PDC have to hype shit, but treating its viewers like absolute morons makes commentary unbearable

As for the games, whilst I do not begrudge any of the success Luke Larger has got, a fine player, and fantastic addition to the tour, I do not respect him, how can anyone respect a person who does not respect himself and allows himself at such a young age become such a fat cunt.  Excess rolls of protoplasm wobbling as he waddles to the board sickens me. A quality game against his odious namesake Luke.
Gerwyn Price missed double 12 for a 9 darter, and scored brilliantly but his doubles were shaky so Doets was very much in the game.
Darts most miserable cunt Barney, dressed like a complete spaz missed a couple of match darts and Hunchback MvG who resembles Luke Larger in the waist department, took advantage and he fist pumped and made faces that would scare children and sicken adults and waddled off stage. Then we had Gian Van Veen against Danny Knobbert, who threw complete muck and was 5-0 down before waking up and winning the next 3 legs in 39 darts, but Van Veen saw it out.Comms acted like a player hearing "a noise" was news worthy.

SEMI FINALS
Not sure why the former World Champion and higher ranked Price came out before Luke Larger, always thought on walk ons the higher ranked player came out second. It was a good watch as almost all Price games are be it cos you like him or despise him, but you can easily see why he quit rugby, cos if he dropped the ball as much as he drops his darts, he would have never got a game, again Price scored well but missed crucial doubles, especially the double 12 for a break when it was 4-4, the same double 12 he missed for the 9 darter in the previous game, and then missed 7 darts to hold for 5-5, and the fat kid broke and held for the win. If you are going to blow games against the fat kid, its better to do it in non ranking exbos. Van Veen then took on the other fat cunt left in the comp and it was a piss poor start with Quasimodo missing a dozen darts at a double, by the time it was 2-2. Gian then started missing doubles and blew a chance to lead 4-2. Gian did break back for 4-4 but MvG ran out the winner
FINAL
How can 2 people under the age of 40 allow themselves to have guts and an obese waistline like them is something they should be ashamed about. I have seem multiple pics of Luke Larger with burgers and chips in front of him, he rants on about kebabs, and no 17 year old should ever allow themselves become that fat. At what point do you wake up realizing you are getting fatter do you say no more ?
Great players  ? Yes, but when I hear the PDC claim they are a sport it makes a mockery of real sport. I have seen women who were 9 months pregnant that had did not look as wide as these. Only the other week Mark Dudbridge in an interview on modus was asked after he was limping over a sore hip, how he was seemingly improved from his last game and he stated, that backstage he had some extra drinks, implying he was already drinking prior to having the extra ones. He knew himself and even claimed that he "should not be saying this".
You cannot realistically try bullshit people with this "Darts is a sport" horseshit and then parade two obese cunts as the top players and proof of it being a sport, even the most dense fans will see through that bullshit.
As for the game, it was as much as was expected from them 2 players, but as I have stated numerous times, its hard to be fully invested in an event that means absolutely nothing, but only serves as some filler until the proper darts start.
MvG took out a badly needed 130 to hold for 5-4 and celebrated like he just came back from the planet Pluto with the cure for cancer, at 6-6 Luke missed a chance to break, and MvG held for 7-6, and when Luke missed the bull for a 170 to hold, MvG wrapped it up


When Price first came on the scene and was winning players Championships and talking a big game, I said until he wins a ranking major on TV, all the talk means nothing but he backed it up.
I said the same when Luke Scumphries won multiple euro tours and ran his dicklicker, and sure enough he went and won proper majors
Many players talk a good game, get the hype but until you pick up proper ranking majors it means little in the history of the game....Chizzy being a prime example.Until Luke Larger wins a proper ranking major, it will all be hype and whilst it all looks very promising and a done deal, there is always a chance a few hidings could see the wheels come off, if unlikely

PDC PREMIER LEAGUE
First up we got Wright , yet again throwing muck and was out first round, he even admitted in an interview he himself expected not to be picked, and then had the audacity to say later in the same interview how he did not care for the lower ranked players, and I expect his attitude to change when he starts falling down the rankings.
Price beat Stutters Aspinall, and Bellyboy beat MvG in a last leg decider where MvG went 12 darts without a treble after starting on throw with a 140. His attempt at 130 for the match where he scored 21 was abysmal. Luke Fatter beat Scumphries and we were told yet again how the kid "got revenge".  The kid could beat Scumphries week in week out in the Premier League, have a 16-1 record over Scumphries but it means fuckall if all his wins come in non ranking glorified exbos.
Price then beat Cross, Bellyboy beat Luke Fatter, and Price who had performed the best over the first 2 games , jobbed in the final against Bellyboy.
One week in and I am bored of it. By the time the UK Open or the Matchplay starts, the match ups of the 2 Lukes, or Price, and MvG etc  wont seem half as special as the Premier League will make sure they seem less special, as we see them every Thursday
As for Wayne Mardle, I am sure he thinks he is funny on commentary, the delusion cunt, laughing at his own stupid comments and thinks self deprecation will win over fans.

THE MASTERS

Yep...yet another non ranking exbo, so insignificant that Gerwyn Price could not be arsed to take part and withdrew on Thursday prior to his PL appearance. The PDC drafted in Gurney, and I understand completely bringing in another player, but what made no sense was have him completely replace Price in the draw. surely the 9th seed should have been bumped up to the top 8 and got the bye, and Gurney join in round one like all the others outside the top 8. Gurney instead not only gets in but gets a bye in the process, thank fuck its not ranking.
Comms told us this was "A Big tournament", a tournament that is so insignificant, Price gave it a skip, a comp that yet again carries no ranking, and in the past might have been used as a way to get in the PL, it serves zero purpose now, just another in a long line of non ranking glorified invitational exbos dominating the first 6 months of the year.
Dirk unexpectedly beat the scruffy window washer, but other than helping Dirk's confidence, it is the wrong comp for him to be winning in, its the ranking comps he needs the wins in.
Skipped Clayton and the plodding Polak, like both players, but boring to watch generally so went and had a shower and found out Ratajki won upon my return.
Spacehopper Shindler who lost some weight, was 4-0 down to Chizzy despite averaging 108. Chizzy was impressive winning 6-1 with an average of over 109.
Schindler is not even the biggest choker in Germany, that honour belongs to Michellin Man Clemens as he did his usual TV shite and lost 6-2. Next up was Babs against Wade. Wade scored well but missed countless crucial doubles in multiple legs and was lucky not to be 4-0 down. At 5-1 down Wade was 1 from 15 on doubles and deservedly went out.
Dobey beat Gilding, and Cullen beat Josh Rock in a decent encounter. Smudger and Bunting started their match with 3 eleven darters, and the first double Smudger missed was double 15 for a 150 checkout and the match.Bunting broke and held and in to a last leg decider which Bunting broke and took the win.
Obviously I did not watch Modus, so no report on that.

Lastly I saw the high roller radio did an interview with Birmingham's answer to Christy Brown discussing the recent talking points in darts, and I was discussed. Really odd how so many claim to take no notice of me, nor read this blog, yet I was worthy of discussion...go figure. Seems brummie mongoloids have convinced themselves I post what I do to be a troll, guess understanding the points I discuss must not register with the mentally stunted.
 
I am so bored on World Series,The Master , & The Premier League  already, I am counting down the days to the Players championships, as I am more interested in so many of the new tour card holders, and ranking darts, even the minor floor comps will always trump non ranking invitational exbos.
