WOMP WOMP. Now it's not going to happen with all these storms coming in

This is great! Thank you for this speculation! While I doubt it would happen, I think Simon going elsewhere (not Trilogy or Prodigy) would be fun!
To add fuel to the fire there was an article on Ultiworld where Jussi stepped out of line and confirmed Simon for Australia, and then got in trouble with Simon because that was not yet set in stone.

I would totally rock a Big Jerm signature DDx.
:facepalm: the Internet obviously doesn't know how sponsorship works haha

He's not going to pick his sponsor based on their discs/plastics, he's going to make the decision based on the deal. All the major disc makers have comparable discs for pretty much any shot.
Today's forecast looks good, hopefully it still happens -- those two guys together would be hilarious! Now the question is, what are the pairings?

If he goes to Innova, DDx is certainly on the table. Paul, Sexton, and Avery all have Discmania signatures.

I agree with you. He's still going to throw plastic and decide what works best for him, and he'll bag the discs he likes, and if he switches, we'll soon find out his choices.
Week and a half to the New Year...
Fluffy and Rick Gutierrez. Why should we care about these people?

yeah, I know. And I agree, it's fun. I read this thread multiple times a day. Just cooling off a little bit of the speculation by deflating the 'employee' aspect.

If this is the big news, it is underwhelming. Perhaps good exposure for the support, but far from game changing. However, it sounds like a really neat experience for Paul and Kona.

What's Sexton's signature DM mold?
Whether you think he's funny or not he is one of the top comics in the world right now and has a huge public presence. Im not one to harp on growing the sport but this is a fairly big deal.
While he could crush a DDx and could potentially have it in his bag, I doubt he would use a DDx when the PD2 is a much better choice for FH, and better for strong BH shots as well... plus Eagle and Simon both use the PD2 for distance shots in various stages of wear

Yeah but see the thing is... Avery and Sexton are both technically team Discmania, and Paul is Paul. I get that they are sister companies but I would be very surprised if Jussi puts a non Discmania players name on their disc
Presumably this filming was going to be part of one of the Fuse network episodes of "Fluffy Breaks Even". I haven't seen the show but the guy is funny. And as Andy said, he's a top comic with a lot of fans and almost a million followers on twitter. Just him tweeting about playing disc golf was pretty cool, a lot of those followers were probably saying, wtf is that?
I don't have an opinion on whether or not he is funny because I didn't know who he is. Is Fluffy Rick Gutierrez? Are they the same person. I'm confused.
