The football clearly hasn't been fully commercialised. A durable foam moulded ball is one of those ideas that's super-obvious but requires just the right material to actually be fun to kick. Surely once the right polymer and foam density have been found it can be churned out for pennies.

I have a One World Football, and I have to say that it's pretty nice. I like the weight, the bounce, and the feel, especially for headers. I would use it in a real game if I could convince anyone else, but they all think it looks too weird or is a Nerf ball or something. It's almost the the last step they need is some kind of cover to make it look like the balls you see on TV.
