Give me an OPTION to pre-buy game pieces. We had ruptured our ball before anyone even knew where to order replacements. Poofs had to be tracked down- bad for the environment.

It's times like this that I wish there was an option for a super secret committee vote that would call me at 3am in the morning and say "Jason- you have the option of committing an additional 85$ towards the KOP to pre-purchase field equipment. Do you accept this offer?".
