ADA: National Championship XVI
"2005 National Championship XIV
$75,000
August 03-04-05-06-07, 2005
Las Vegas, NV


The ADA National Championship was the featured event, and specficly # 3 seeded WILLIAM J CROSS JR in the Men's Neutralizer Soft-tip division who is seeking his third national title. There was a brief discription of the ADA and it's divisions, No mention was made that the league is for both Steel & Soft tip darts and that Cross is competing as a soft tip player, but several scenes had both steel and soft tip boards in the background.

I did enjoy the dart family background scenes in the segment; William's Wife: "You've got to play dart's if you want to be in this family", and the father son scene with the son standing on the chair to shoot at what may have been a double 10. Maybe everyone needs a dart board in the bedroom.

It would have been nice to have a bit more background on where he plays, and perhaps a mention of the bar's name and his home town.

So all in all I would say it was not a bad segment, but It could have been so much more.
