I agree. Currently, I look to Kenny as the greatest of all time and Paul as the best of all time. Similar but not the same.

You who know better correct me, but assuming a manufacturer makes what, 7-10 bucks on each normal production-run disc sold(just guess, subtracting cost of production, wholesale prices, etc., that's 100-150 thousand discs sold to pay a pro a million bucks a year.
And I'll be darned if he isn't way cuter.
I'm not going to disagree, but I'd say more specifically, sponsors are looking to grow their brand..Gotta remember…that new sponsorship is intended to drive additional sales ON TOP of whatever your daily business was from the previous year. We're talking about growing the sport right?

If they can increase market share, while the industry is experiencing growth, they probably get the desired return.
Am I crazy thinking these companies should be investing in more machines and employees to produce product instead of players? Most of the companies can't keep up with the demand right now and some of their molds haven't been available for quite long periods of time. If Discraft could get the smaller shops more than 25 discs a month they have allowed them to get, that has to be better for business than signing another pro right? I know one local shop would be wanting 1000+ discs a month from them if they were allowed to. Seems like such a wasted opportunity.
Wham-O, way to go Nikko and Chris.
Chris Dickerson and Nikko Locastro signed with Wham-O? How do they have the disc golf money to sign these type pros. I did not even think they were a major player of any kind in our game.

Don't underestimate Wham-O!!! Their annual revenue is nearly $60 million dollars and the CEO Todd Richards has recently been overheard mumbling in his sleep that he "wants Nikko" or something to that effect. Also, my friend's brother lives by the guy who walks Todd's dog and he told me that the dog is named Dickerson so really it was only a matter of time.
Also, there's a chance the guy was joking about Wham-O.
Could the same apply to DG?
