What is this boards consensus on the Brazuca?

Last year we switched our all our Jabulanis with Brazucas, and I like the Brazuca WAY better. Way easier to control shots and long passes. Ball gives good feedback to your feet, if that makes sense.

The Jabulani is only good for knuckleballs and trick shots. Even the players in the 2010 World Cup had a really hard time shooting with it. Except the Dutch and Germans.

Lulz at pvilleguru. He'd probably be okay with a 5 lbs. medicine ball as the official game ball. After all, it's just a ball, amirite?

Slight exaggeration. But I really don't care which $200 ball they use.

It's not like I'm going to buy a new ball anytime soon, and it certainly wouldn't be an official match ball if I did. My playing days are pretty much behind me.

My cap for buying a ball is probably $50.
