sounds fair, they can still play football (theyre tough, those turks)

Just got back from Turkey, they said could they please have their ball back?

Yes it would John.
But then imagine the enemy firing it at you.
120lb stone balls scything through ranks of men coming towards you.
That would spoil your entire day.

It would be neat to see this one fired.
