It doesn't bother me much at that L.L. or JV levels, but
I worked several varsity games last year as a linesman and
I got my hands on a quite a few mush balls. I had a coach
throw in a ball to me after his team took posession that
felt like a car wash sponge. I tossed it back at him and
requested a properly inflated ball, and he told me that
referee had already approved it. I wasn't going to question
that statement (and I'm glad I didn't because when I asked
my white hat at halftime what he thought of the ball that
green was playing with, he made it clear that he didn't
care as long as it was brown and leather)

Are you white hats out there pretty thorough about checking
balls (or even marking them) before games?
