1992: Ball
1993: Ball
1994: Ball
1995: Ball
1996: Ball
1997: Torus (inner tube)
1998: Ball
1999: Floppy (beanbag thingamajig)
2000: Ball
2001: Ball
2002: Ball
2003: Boxes
2004: Ball
2005: Tetra
2006: Ball
Well.. the past aside, I think FIRST might now be into switching things up, which suggests balls may show up every other year, or so..

I don't know what the game is going to be, but I'll make the bold-stupid prediction that balls will not be the primary scoring object of 2007.
