I'll cheer Ricky on no matter where he ends up. Same with Paul. What they throw makes no difference to me.

Market is entirely too small to start another disc manufacturing company. The only thing that makes sense to me is both of them have accepted long term positions with a company that gives them more financial security in the long run. No player well ever get rich just from tournament winnings. The elite pros approaching 30 or so, have to be concerned with "life after MPO" earnings.

They announce it on the same day that they release a starter set with his name and picture on it.......great sales strategy

Completely unrelated, look for a discounted Lat64 Starter Set on Black Friday. They'll have plenty of them available

No. Maybe mods could merge this into the "Paul is switching sponsors" thread so it could get buried under more McBS.
