Anyone else use these?
In Illinois, they were mandated for use in the postseason, so many teams used them in the regular season, as well.
I was not impressed. The balls did not hold up at all...all ten that we purchased (4 composites and 6 leather) more or less completely fell apart by the end of the year and are pretty much unusable at this point. One of the balls doesn't even hold air anymore...must have gotten a hole in the bladder somehow?
Our QBs actually liked the feel of the Baden composite footballs but they don't seem to be very durable, especially given the inclement weather we had for much of the season.
Anyway...just wanted to see if anyone else had a similar experience with these footballs.
