Well, no...it's not absolutely necessary that there be a football.  One can simply make a public statement that one is "throwing the football", and INH can keep track of that fact.  I mean, the whole damn game is virtual, so why can't part of be even more virtual?  You have lunch with me on the grid, and I'll agree you need a football.

All this I say after a long weekend out of town, so maybe someone else has said all this...
