    because there were no more worlds to conquer...Bristow's only 27."

    Best quote ever.

    who is Bristow? Am I in sport again? Is it darts?

    No Sid Waddell fans? He's a darts commentator. The inspiration for the snooker commentators in that mitchell and webb look. Other quotes of his:

    The atmosphere is so tense, if Elvis walked in with a portion of chips, you could hear the vinegar sizzle

    That's the greatest comeback since Lazarus.

    If we'd had Phil Taylor at Hastings against the Normans, they'd have gone home

    and my favourite

    There's only one word for that - magic darts

    also, this was sport, so why isn't it in the sport category? Andy, you've tricked me into this!

    Just found that he's got a site: http://www.sidwaddell.com/

    More inane gems include:

    "The pendulum is swinging back and forward like a metronome"

    "Deller is not just an underdog - he’s an under puppy"

    and more recently:

    "It’s the nearest thing to public execution you’ll see this side of Saudi Arabia."
