Maybe he forgets the USFL has more than one ball too? 

 

I think it's common knowledge the USFL has only one football and after each game it is placed in a lock box for safekeeping.

The only real solution is sensors covering the whole surface of the ball.  But then you need to have a conduit from the ball, through the ball carriers elbows, knees, and rear to the surface to indicate when and where a player is down.  Now I know what you're thinking, thats all fine and well but the players wear rubber sole shoes which are non-conductive so this elaborate system still doesn't indicate if a player has tapped their toes in field of play.  Basically we need to rethink equipment, the playing surface and the ball entirely. I have developed some 3D renderings that I think show real promise.  See below:

 

Some NFL players and the NFL have resisted any changes like requiring certain safety equipment.

How much money do you think NFL will require to allow these type of changes?
