I feel weird conversing with you about this, but.....

I dont know, I feel that by looking at past precedent the balls are what teams usually buy in large quantities, no matter how much of the field they build. It's easier to train HPs that way...if one is broken there are some readily available...they get stolen/lost along the way...it's an easy and compact presentation tool....out of any piece on the field the balls are the most important.
But hey, it happens. Next year it'll be something else that goes awry
