Advantages: Maintains it shape, correct weight, feels great when you strike it. Disadvantages: Very expensive

Yet the requirements of football may of us require is simply to be round and pumped up. However, when you are at a sufficient level of play, balls do make a difference. I count myself as a competent footballer who has found the game to lat in life to make a difference. Perhaps if I had found the passion I now have in ... ...something. Anyway, back to the ball...

The one thing i cant exactly tell you about this ball is the weight, but i can tell you that it is perect in the air- the ball elevates nice and straight.

Stephen Fry is a national treasure, and not just because he's worth millions. Erudite and witty, he is the man who can make upper middle class intellectualism cool.
He's been a comedian, actor, even director, but you get the sense that it's his... more
I am surprised no one has written about this yet. It is indeed one of the funniest inventions ever brought to television. Guests come on the show and tell the host, Mark Dolan, what they had been getting up to during the week past. The activities range... more
