Lately, I've been trying to think up ways of entertainment to add to the SMP server I play on. Besides the fun of just building, I'm trying to create other ways to have fun. I recently came up with the idea of hockey, but when I tried to find something to use as a puck, nothing I tried worked. Carts and boats barely moved, and I can only nudge other players around with PvP on. This is why I think we need to have items such as balls or pucks to allow people to play sports with.
For things such as football or basketball, we could have them thrown using the right mouse button. For sports like soccer, a right click (or just hitting it with the left click) could launch the ball. Pucks would essentially work the same way, just not on land. I believe we should start embracing metagaming in Minecraft, and one of the easiest ways to do this is with sports, and we can't have effective sporting without items such as balls and pucks.
Hush, I just got through patching that hole that got ripped in the universe. Don't mention clay either.
I don't explicitly hate this idea, but I am also not particularly fond of it either. Since I do not see it doing more than requiring extra coding; what the hell.
i made a game called blockball unfortunetly it never caught on one would use blocks to block one person who throws a peice of obsidian into 2 square hoops on the ground 2 teams 1 obsidian block lots and lots of dirt = minecraft basketball

Well, I suppose my point is that sometimes, people don't really feel like building, even though that's the primary goal. These balls would allow people to occupy their time with things besides building without having to come up with their own solutions to boredom. It would also have more relevance on multiplayer, allowing for interaction.

Not everything in Minecraft is square, I'm sure if Notch were to add this, he'd probably make it round.
but nice idea
Snowballs...

If it aint worth fixing dont fix it.
