I take issue with section 8 on "disc diving", which is appropriately numbered, because anyone who would write tripe like this needs a section 8.

Some committed disc golfers get a thrill out of sticking their toes deep in mud, wading through snake infested creeks, and other precarious situations just to retrieve lost plastic from mediocre to professional players. No official records exist indicating who these mysterious people are, but without a doubt they are some of the bravest men and women involved in the art of disc diving. It is estimated by many scholars, and avid players that the world record amount of discs retrieved in one day is near 250, and the most ever recovered by one man/woman is in excess of 2,000, and still climbing. These dedicated disc divers play an important role in conservation of our lakes and creeks that surround some favorite courses around the nation. If you ever bump in to one of these brave souls, be sure to spend some time getting to know them, because science has proven that without these efforts, they would wind up actually buying discs to play with, and would be unable to afford their important trips to various courses to continue these conservation efforts.
Bunch of self-aggrandizing hokum if you ask me, but even if you agree with the sentiments of that passage, its not exactly Wikipedia material.
