Wow. You really gotta wonder how some people go through life just trying to be the biggest possible jackass to everyone they come in contact with.

You know, I'm pretty much a "turn the other cheek" kind of person, but the world would really be a better place without his guy. I hope he lives the sad, lonely existence he is so assiduously cultivating. Emphasis on the "ass".

I read the first page. the guy is a total ass, but pretty much how the flyover states imagine Southern Californians to be. I would guess the additional 5 pages add up to a series of one-upmanship imbroglios.

and launches into a story about how his father, who also used a middle initial and died when Zaffina was 8, drilled into him the importance of being called by his full name and demanding that everyone oblige
Of course, he isn't insisting on being called his full name. He's insisting they use the middle initial...

Says former SCDA board member David Irete, "He was becoming a nuisance and pain in the ass and breaking the rules. He was threatening us, so we had to kick him out. He was being a cocksucker, and you can quote me on that, please."
I hope this guy runs for something that I can vote for him. I don't even care if he's as useless as tits on a boar in every other aspect, he wins!

What did this guy do?
And I'm a huge dart player, in my experience, you get just as many tools as laid back guys. A couple weeks ago, I played against a guy who threw like the dartboard did something to his dog - and he the lack of personality to match. But playing darts is remarkably good for picking up bar tail. YMMV

"

."
Oh yeah? Maybe not on a regular practice night, but if it's even a small house tourney and you do something as trivial as step over the foul line or make noise when someone is up and it's a tight game, or even chalking wrong you'll be happy that it's a soft-tipper tourney.

I bet it would be a farking blast.

I think it's funny that the whole thing seems to hinge on his absurd insistence on forcing people to use his middle initial when writing his name.
Especially since LA Weekly decided to use his name, without the middle initial, as a keyword in the "More About" section of the story. See the

They didn't print his name with his middle initial in it on the league's website and then kicked him out when he complained (a lot), so he discovered that the league had let their corporation registration papers (or something like that) expire, and he incorporated a new league with the same name and sued all the members of the original and the bars they like to play in. End page 1. I didn't read the rest.

I think this is code for people who deep down have such little sense of self worth that they must constantly seek out situations in which they can feel "disrespected" and then act outraged about it.
It's the "You Think You're Better Than Me?!?" Syndrome.
This certainly isn't unique to any race or culture. Every redneck on my father's side of the family operates in this manner. Their entire emotional lives revolve around whether or not they perceive other people "disrespecting" them.

I read the friggen thing and it's five pages of the guy being a dick.
FTA :
At one point, the players wanted to start fresh under the title Los Angeles Darts Association. Sabata says he mentioned the idea over the summer at the group's annual meeting and then posted the suggestion on Facebook on Sept. 7.
Two days later, according to Internet records, Zaffina bought the domain name losangelesdartsassociation.com. Less than a month later, he also bought the .net and .org versions of the name.
Zaffina denies he ever knew about the players' intent to form under the Los Angeles moniker and says there is no proof that he saw Sabata's Facebook post or that anyone sent him a link to it.
"Even if I was clairvoyant and I knew," he says, "I still have the right to purchase them."

Some people are only happy when they have a "cause". It doesn't matter how trivial it is. The puffed-up sense of self-righteousness is their drug and it's what makes them happy. You notice how many times the article quoted him as saying something like "I have a legal right..."?
