They practice with them, but why use them when no one else is? I think we will make playoffs??

I can't wait to see what they are like in the cold. That ball blatter will probably shrink and we will be playing with flat footballs.

Everyone has to use them in playoffs.... If you're planning on being in the playoffs.... It's kind of dumb not to be using them now.

If they are as bad as some are saying wouldn't it be smarter to use another ball to give you a better shot at making the playoffs?

To me that is just bass ackwards... It makes no sense what so ever because then when it really "matters" your team will have no experience using the ball that they have to. Although that does give them an excuse once they lose in the first round.

Yep. And that's what it's all about. Finding excuses. If it's not the referees, it's the coaches and if it's not the coaches, it must be the ball.

Just heard that Rawlings just released an updated version available for the schools to purchase that is supposed to be a better made ball.

If they had to update and improve the ball shouldn't they replace the junk balls at no cost??????

Yeah let's make a junk product and force everyone to buy it and then rollout a better product 3 months later that they will want to buy because the first one was so terrible! Brilliant!
