Rodders Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 16 Wasn't there a film with Robin Williams called Jack? Body of an 80 year old by the time he was twenty according to that ludicrous film. Should wish him well now I suppose, he'll be physically retired by next christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Amazing story, the double bull he threw yesterday was just taking the piss, and the attempted 180 when he only had 182 left, got balls of steel for a 16 year old. £200,000 secured and a chance to increase it to £500k tonight, whether he looks 16 or 40 he’s going to be very popular in town on a Saturday night now. Mental to think he could be doing this for the next 30+ years, that’s a whole heap of money right there for doing something you love and which frankly, you don’t need to adjust your lifestyle too much to accommodate.

foreveryoung Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 All a bit dodgy for me his age. When he won the junior trophy he had a beard and moustache, he was just 15. He has a spare tyre like a 20 year old, mature well above his age, an even his Mrs is 21, going on 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a decent (top 16) darts player can earn a very good living. Fair play to them. I hope Humphries wins tonight though. Having a 16yo win, and destroy everyone would be a great story, but he'll have plenty of time in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I think a 21yo girl 'dating' a 16yo boy is a bit weird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Not to blow my own trumpet, but I have always been pretty good at darts, remember beating many adults as a lad. Had a dart board in my bedroom at my parents from about 12 and played nearly every night when I came home from school with my pals. I always remember, it's about playing with the right weight darts, Tungsten too, as they throw much better. Might actually put my board up in my office, have a go, see if I have still got it, although will need need darts, as used to leave them at the local and they got knicked.

He's boxing well above his weight too, if you google her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Good final in the end and fair play to Humphries as he played the better darts overall. That dart when Littler could have gone 5-2 up was the turning point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I've never watched a game (match?) of darts in my life, fair play to the lad for getting so far, but I'm glad I'm not going to be seeing that chubby little word removed all over the news anymore for something that has as much sporting merit as a game of Buckaroo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put him in the Premier League, which is a mini-competition containing the "eight best". I think it's a joke to be honest...lad had a couple of good weeks and they're capitalizing financially because of the whirlwind around him.
