Discraft now has 18 MPO/FPO world titles on their team. Wild.
Probably be 19 by the end of things....

I'd be shocked if she got the a line of discs like Paul does...
wouldnt she just pull her last world champ with discraft bag out of the closest and dust it off
I will be shocked if she don't
Wouldn't surprise me at all. Discraft seems to be all in on disc golf right now. With Paige being a 5x champ, perhaps she was under marketed at DD and Discraft sees more potential than they did. Also wouldn't shock me to see Discraft come out with a line of discs specifically with female players in mind.

I guess you don't like this move
I loved that video, something new and really well made

Now I finally might be able to sell my Stalkers for more than the cost of shipping.
Meh. They're still well behind Innova in that regard. Innova can beat that total with fewer players.
Certainly, Discraft now has more titles of a recent vintage, but it's worth noting that of the 18 you're counting (Discraft does actually have more on their team), only five of them were won with Discraft plastic.
Good for Paige. She should be getting all the money she can while there's money to be gotten.

I dig the move, but not so much the choice to have the dad of the near-30-year-old woman be the star of the announcement. 10 years ago this would have made sense to me, but not so much now. Perhaps a bit pessimistic of me, but it's just one man's opinion.

It's funny...this isn't a new thing for Discraft. Cam Todd won his Worlds in 2001 throwing Innova and he then went to Discraft shortly after. Pretty sure the rumor was they made him the Chally, Wasp and Predator to sweeten the deal.

Couldn't agree more.
I don't like the video. Jomez did a great job, I just hate how everything is so dramatic these days. It's all about social media click bait...
I appreciated the straightforward approach of Paige's resignation video, even though I'm not a PP fan.
Oh well, they got the internet worked up for a week so people don't have to focus on their own problems, mission accomplished...
I found it...strange as well. Obviously it wasn't meant to be the official PP to DC announcement since they're pitching it as a trailer to something else coming out, but perhaps Paige wanted something out there "today" so they patched the DC stuff in at the end.
