I have a 6 lb. yorkie, and she absolutely LOVES these balls. Normal size balls can't fit in her mouth, but these do. When you first get them, they do squeek (which she loves), but within an hour she had the squeeker pulled out of all three of the balls :( Despite that, she still plays with them almost every day and are by far her favorite toy. I am ordering a second pack today!

My little 5 pound Chihuahua loves these mini balls. I've purchased countless toys for him and I think these are probably his favorite. He absolutely loves chewing them and getting the squeaks. Unfortunately, just after a few hours of use, he managed to kill the squeaker in two out of the three balls. The balls are fully intact. Just no more squeaking. I'll probably look elsewhere for something that is a bit more robust in build quality.

My pup, who's a small 10 lb. mix breed, loves, Loves, LOVES these Kong balls. They are soft unlike a hard tennis ball but still tough enough that they last through a chewing (she tries to chew the squeaker/stuffing out of everything). They are also a perfect fit for her tiny mouth, not to mention an awesome value for 3 of them. I hope Kong continues to make these.

I have a 14-week-old Boston who loves tennis balls and squeaky toys, so these were an instant hit! They're the perfect size for her small mouth and after 3 weeks have proved indestructible. She chases and chews them, providing hours (well, minutes - she IS a puppy) of entertainment for both of us. She also loves the Air Kong Squeaker Donut Dog Toy, Small; it seems to be just a little easier for her to carry than the ball.

My little chi loved these when she found out they squeek. She wasn't strong enough to squeek them herself but she loved it when I did it for her. The balls are small enough for a 5 LB dog to get their mouth around. They come in threes so you can easily teach your dog to fetch, rotating through the balls. My one complaint was, after a couple of months of use, one lost its ability to squeek and the other two developed holes along the white seam lines. I would have expected a years worth of play considering it was just a tiny little dog using them! Oh well, the dogs do love them.

These are great little balls. The colors are bright and the dogs can see them when you throw them and they land on grass or plant cover. My dogs love the squeaker. Good toy, would recommend

My puppy-dog Chabree(age 10) loves these balls, because they squeak and they roll under the couch for me to get. It doesn't break, but when it gets water in it you have to squeeze the water out. Best for medium sized dogs!

We bought one of these sqweaky tennis balls, and out Boston Terrier loved it so much that we ordered these. By far his favorite toy, he looks to sqweak them, and run and catch them/

If these balls were, say, maybe 20 cents a ball they would be wonderful but at their current price they are so overpriced. My dog is not an aggressive chewer and loves to play with this play but.. after maybe 20 times playing with it and the chuck-it it no longer squeaks it can still be played with but.. it's not the same. Other dogs who chew and or slobber a lot the toy gets filled with saliva and if you play with it in the water it will get filled and start to sink: you can squeeze the liquid out but it's gross especially if it is saliva- EW!

Our Wheaten Terrier has been addicted to these since he was a puppy - and takes great satisfaction from chasing them and squeaking them. However they don't last very long - I think about one week is about average. However, they're pretty cheap and so we just resign ourselves to a regular re-order.

My dogs love these, I have a shepherd mix and a westie. The shepherd mix is able to tear up regular tennis balls in minutes, these last a little longer, plus have a squeaker which = more fun for them. The shepherd mix was able to tear one of these up like he does with normal tennis balls, but we still have several of these littered around the house. They really like them. I will definitely buy more.

We bought these for $5.32 with Super Saver Shipping, which is a great price! Real tennis balls would cost more, and these squeak!

My dog goes nuts over these! She just loves to play with them outside in the yard - one squeak out of them and even if she's in the deepest sleep she jumps up and is ready to play. I agree - sometimes the squeaker breaks and then rattles around inside the ball, but we can still play fetch! They are better than tennis balls because they are softer for her to hold in her mouth and catch, and even though they might break I just buy more . . . with my australian shepherd not many other toys (besides the kong rubber toys) last more than 5 minutes in the house - she destroys them. I think they are well worth the fun!

This was a very funny movie about a janitor named Gary Houseman who helps coach a Tennis team who haven't won a game in a long time. Gary has very funny and unorthodox ways of helping his team. There were some hilarious secondary characters like the laughing grandpa, and the 8-year-old named Amy who is pregnant and needs money for an abortion. Will Gary lead the team to victory? I highly recommend BALLS OUT: GARY THE TENNIS COACH!!!

This film was really 2.5 stars, to be fair. I feel that a better script could have helped here, and the pacing was quite clunky. Stiffler was as ever Stiffler and I found his character rather endearing, I actually cared what happended to the team. And to be fair, he wasnt a bad coach, he knew the game and had a fair understanding of what makes people tick, but a rather unconventional way of realising that dream. The acting really was ok, just let down by a poor script and direction. I wouldnt NOT recommend this film, I would just recommend better gross out comedies than this. If you have see all the usual ones, and have 90 mins to kill, you could do worse than this. Alternatively you could spend the time cleaning your guttering, its your choice.

but this movie is bad. Acting - good Plot - clichéd Script - horrid

OK. If you like stupid humor and enjoy movies like Kingpin, Something About Mary, Along Came Polly, Super Troopers, Waiting, Role Models, 40 Year Old Virgin, etc. I think you will appreciate this movie. You probably need to play or at least understand the game of tennis to appreciate some of the humor, but Stiffler is simply hilarious to me. Randy Quaid is also great in this. Unfortunately he has a minor part.

The movie description said that this was a new movie. The movie I received was not new. It was like new but the stickers that all new movies have on them was removed. It is aggravating to get a movie in the mail that was bought new according to the description, but is obviously used.

So my uncle Michael Lanahan wrote this movie back in the 80's. He originally titled it "Road Trip" but the distributor titled it "Jocks" something he hates. He said to me the film was meant to portray what colege life was back in the 80's. There is an interesting cast my uncles favorite being Christopher Lee (evil wizard from Lord of the Rings) whom he got to know well. So there is a little background. So here is my opinion of the movie, I like the character of Ripper and the Black guy, there the funniest in my opinion. The story is good but I mean it was almost to easy, I wish things got a little more complicated before they manage to win the Tennis Championship. I laughed some but I never was cracking up, like with "Old School" or Animal House". So all in all I give the movie a "C".

A college tennis team on a road trip to Vegas gets into a great deal of trouble, but must win the conference title or all their scholarships are lost. Comedic mayhem ensues as the guys scam their way to the title.

From Crown International Pictures, who describe themselves as a `leading force in independent film production and distribution', which is just a fancy way of saying purveyors of schlock, comes Jocks (1987), another in a slew of dumb teenage comedies released throughout the 1980s. Directed by Steve Carver (Big Bad Mama, Lone Wolf McQuade), the film stars Scott Strader (The Karate Kid), Mariska Hargitay (Ghoulies, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit"), and Perry Lang (1941, Alligator). Also appearing is Richard Roundtree (Shaft), R.G. Armstrong (Children of the Corn), Stoney Jackson (Angels in the Outfield), Adam Mills (Snowballing), Don `Ogre' Gibb (Revenge of the Nerds), Trinidad Silva (UHF), Christopher Murphy (Valley Girl), Christopher Lee (The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring), and Tom Shadyac, whose since gone on to directing such films as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994), The Nutty Professor (1996), and Bruce Almighty (2003). As the movie begins we learn the men's tennis program at L.A. College is in jeopardy, even though they've been winning under their coach Chip Williams (Roundtree). Why? Well, it seems the head of the athletic department and coach of the football team named Bettlebom (Armstrong), a creepy, tracksuit wearing jackhole with a ridiculous hairpiece, wants to take the scholarship monies for the tennis team and use it for his football program (oh yeah, he also believes tennis is for pansies). But here's the thing...since the men's tennis team are the only sports program with a chance of winning a national title, the president of the school, played by Christopher Lee, won't allow Bettlebom to discontinue the program. We soon meet the members of the tennis team, a group of misfits lead by a prodigy of sorts called `The Kid' (Strader), whose somewhat of a loose cannon who'd trade his rackets for a six-pack specifically because `you can't drink tennis rackets'. Other members include the nerdy goody goody Jeff (Lang), Andy (Jackson), who's fancies himself a ladies man and looks a lot like singer James DeBarge, jerry curls and all, a BS artist named Tex (Mills), a psychotic named Ripper (Gibb), and Chito (Silva), `the human backboard'. As the team arrives in Las Vegas to compete in some sort of tournament they engage in all sorts of antics, some of which endanger their chances of winning while going up against a couple of evil jocks from Dallas Tech, who also happen to be their main competition. Eventually evil forces conspire against the team, The Kid specifically, as the competition wrangles him into a blackmail scheme involving a bet against L.A. College. Will The Kid throw the match under the pressure and cost his teammates their scholarships, or will he risk his own reputation and come through thereby saving the program? I'll never tell... Jocks is pretty typical of the type of innocuous, slightly sleazy teenage type comedies produced throughout the 1980s, although I sort of wondered if the well was running dry at the time it was made given the backdrop of the story, that being a men's college tennis team. I suppose if the dumb teen comedy genre had remained strong, we may have seen films featuring such activities as curling, badminton, and competitive unicycling. Ah well...I thought this film no better or no worse than any number of other similar movies release throughout the decade, as while it did feature some amusing bits, I didn't find myself outright laughing at anything in particular. The main gist of the comedy seemed to stem from the characters and their unusual methods of style in terms of playing. For example, if Andy found himself losing during a match, he'd turn around and act all ridiculously effeminate towards the other player, which, in turn, would tend to throw the competition's game off. Ripper, on the other hand, would just bash the ball, make threatening noises, and appearing menacing in general. Tex would mess with his opponent's head by engaging him in a large wager based on the outcome of the match (the player then would become preoccupied with the money instead of playing), while Chito would go through an elaborate Catholic, somewhat comical prayer ritual on the court, prior to his match. Jeff had no tricks, and was pretty much the dead weight in the group who tended to lose (mainly because he was the nerdy goody goody type), while The Kid, on the surface, wouldn't seem much in terms of talent until he stepped up, which usually occurred during the match. As far as the performances they were all pretty standard for this type of film, although I'm unsure how Roundtree or Lee got roped into a movie like this, other than perhaps the desire to pick up a check and the fact they had nothing better to do at the time. As far as Ms. Hargitay, she plays a character named Nicole who's a possible love interest for The Kid, but seems to be involved with his competition, one of the evil jocks from Dallas Tech. The writing isn't very good, in my opinion, even for a film like this, as I was hoping for a few more chuckles than it actually produced. There is some nekkidness in the film, typical of the genre, but it wasn't as prevalent as in some of the other films in the genre (there were a couple of brief topless scenes, neither of which included Hargitay). One bit I thought odd was somewhere in the middle, we see the boys hitting a bar, one that appeared to be engaging in a wet t-shirt contest. Only thing was, I never saw any of the s-shirt clad females actually get wet. Ah well, another missed opportunity. The picture on this BCI DVD release, presented in widescreen anamorphic (1.78:1), looks better than expected and the audio comes through clearly, although I'm unsure the actual format. There aren't really any extras provided except for a handful of trailers for other Crown International/BCI DVD releases like The Beach Girls (1982), Weekend Pass (1984), Tomboy (1985), and My Chauffeur (1986). Cookieman108 In case you're wondering, someone at some point during the film does get crotched with a tennis ball...it seemed inevitable, to me, at least, given the caliber of comedy present throughout the movie.

It's about time someone thought of this. No more trying to cut tennis balls to fit your walker.

We love our Jelfin Mouse!!!!! Kids in our household love the appearance and feel. Adults like its uniqueness and comfort. It is just simply fun to use!!!!!! I will buy it again soon for presents.

This is a fine mouse with a few small issues. The biggest is the mouse wheel which is very squishy and does not track evenly and smoothly. It might be the only deal breaker for me otherwise I would probably order a few more as backup/gifts. The cord is a nice length, although it is not super long, good enough if you have a small desk or a USB hub nearby. The construction is good on the device so far, but it is very light weight so I have a tendency to knock it across my desk with an accidental swat of my hand and the fact that its round helps the device to keep going. Pros: - Cord length fine (could be better) - Fits small/medium hands nicely. - Gel coating nice and comfortable. - Optical tracking smooth and jitter free. Cons: - Wheel not very responsive. - On the small side (not for those with large hands) - Very light weight (easy to knock around)

Great product at at great price. It holds enough balls to feed my tennis ball machine.

Love this hopper. A must have and a real back-saver. Solid design yet light even when full.

This is a must have for those with a ball machine or anyone practicing. I like the dual position design and the ability to use the hopper in the standing position, however it is top heavy and can tip over easily.

I am very happy with this purchase! Just set the basket on top of the ball and it squeezes though the bars and ends up in the basket. Simple design but very effective.

First off, we bought two of these because of price, size, and look. They are cavernous and hold a lot of balls. For the occasional player that may use it a couple times a week, emptying and filling the hopper a couple times each use I am sure that this hopper would hold up. Unfortunately we use these every day, and fill and empty the hoppers at least 20 time a day since my wife teaches lessons. Here are the major drawbacks: 1) The nuts come loose very easily and will rattle off and get lost regularly. This requires constant attention so as to assure that the nuts remain in place and tight. I finally bought some thread lock to prevent this, but it was still frustrating to have to purchase something else to make these hoppers functional. 2) The welds that hold the leg holders to the basket are very weak and WILL break. Quite frustrating that after 2 months of use one of these is unusable. 3) There are 2 clips per leg to keep the hopper from tipping over, or the legs slipping on the ground. These are nice, but because the clips are too close together for the legs it is only practical and convenient to use only one of them for each leg. Trying to force the legs into place is very inconvenient. Overall I would not buy this product again. Nice, but for the amount of times we use it, it is not rugged enough.

Since you are looking at an item that contains 72 balls, I am going to assume you are a serious player who wants to improve your game and intend to use these balls for multi-ball drill or for tournament/league play. I would strongly advise you to stay away from this item. Here are the reasons why: 1. These are not ITTF approved as the original Butterfly balls are. The label says USATT approved, which does not translate to quality. 2. I found each ball are off different weights. 3. Many of them are so unbalanced because of the seam and uneven weight distribution of the two parts. If side spin is applied, the ball will display a vibrating motion as it would if one side is heavier than the other. I seriously doubt that this is a genuine Butterfly product. My guess is that MK(Martin Kilpatrick) is branding these balls as butterfly and selling it for cheap price. I have been using butterfly balls for a long time and never ever I have seen such low quality.

Great buy light weight even bounce...should last for around 10 hrs each ball based on my first few, much lighter and less bouncy than the ITTF balls but for a practice ball can't complain and I am an intermediate level medallist here at Singapore. These balls a great buy even for Asian/costs and standards...

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3D0LZ78Z5D5TE I have to make a response this time!!! This is actually my first time to "write" review for Amazon.com. Please excuse my English and everything else. I want to let everyone knows what product they're actually buying. ONE THING THAT MAY NOT MAKE SENSE IN THE VIDEO IS THAT: I said I returned them immediately after I received them, and I am actually showing the balls on the video because after I returned them, my club needed ping pong balls right away and the price went down to $24.99 so I bought another one immediately. (and same thing happened). Is it leagal to have the product different than advertised??? My conclusion for this product is that "it's your money, to me, I won't buy them again" So make your decision, and good luck (you can return them to amazon anyways, but again, I won't do it) Welcome to comment on anything, or ask more about this product (I will receive e-mail when customers comment on the review).

The image of the balls display these balls are approved by I.T.T.F. In fact, the balls I received are approved by U.S.A.T.T. With the different approved, the balls have different qualities. I feel I was cheated!

Very happy with the purchase. The Butterfly 3-star balls are well made, not like the ones you would purchase from Wal-mart or Sears. The pricing is reasonable so we bought two buckets. These are sold by Amazon so there were no worries. These balls are great for practice with the Robopong.

This is my first time buying ping pong balls myself. My son got into the game recently and I wanted to support him by playing with him at home. As we were losing Starcraft 3-star balls that came with ping pong table, I started shopping. I didn't look for professional or competition-level balls. GoGo, I have never heard the brand before, caught my eyes purely because of price advantage and Amazon.com review. Other popular ping pong brand such as Stiga, Butterfly, Joolar and etc, their balls are more than $1 per ball. I bought this 144 GoGo 3-star balls and am so happy with its quality. Very durable and look nice. I used the first ball for almost 2 weeks - we played 1 hr almost every day - until my son stepped on it last night. I don't know how long it takes to use all of them! Highly recommended.

I purchased the GOGO 3-Star Ping pong Balls about 3 weeks ago. For the price you can't beat it. They work great for the Newgy Robo-Pong device as they only support 40 MM balls. (My 38 MM balls were jamming up the machine). They seem pretty durable so far and I am pleased with the purchase.

Been pretty impressed with these balls. Playin' for few weeks with them, and smashing them all over the place but have yet to crack one. I would buy again, but I don't think I'll ever need to. I bought way too many! :)

Fast delivery. I mainly used for practices and I am happy with product. Price is good but the delivery charge is a little high.

The GoGo balls are ok, but they still break if hit really hard. The only thing I'm glad about was the good price on 144 balls. If ANY ping pong ball will break when hit by a ping pong fanatic, it helps to have box of 144 extra balls.

Bought this for my son who is a soccer coach. He loved it. Quality is good, price was right and delivery was fast.

Replaced my standard mesh bags with this one this season, had issues with other bags tearing, not so with this one. Very durable.

This is a great ball bag for a coach! I carry 8 soccer balls, 16 practice jerseys, and cones in this bag with room to spare. The zipper pouch will hold your keys and wallet as well. Worth the money. I have 3 other inexpensive bags that get left at home and am thinking of buying another one of these for football and basketball season!

Got this to replace a previous bag that was developing a lot of holes. The nylon bottom is pretty good at resisting abrasions from my son dragging it across the parking lot, and the little pocket is extremely handy for keeping car keys, phone, and other stuff I don't need in my pockets while I am coaching. Shoulder straps and a grab handle make it easy to carry too. All in all, a very good bag, for a very reasonable price.

A fun CD which will appeal to the sports lover, music lover and history lover in equal measure. The idea is simple. "Play The Game" contains 17 American and British songs, each one about a different sport. The songs were written between 1862 and 1913. Listeners are likely to be drawn to the songs which illustrate their favourite sports. Many golfers will recognise the plight of the player in "Caddie", written in 1900, who pleads with his caddie, ever more desperately, to 'get me right out of this mess'. Enthusiasts of British heritage will enjoy "The Eton Boating Song", the song of Eton College, the elite British school where Lady Diana's children, Princes William and Harry, were educated. The CD also includes a real historical curiosity : "A Hunting Morning" is a setting of a rare poem by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes. The liner notes contain an article on the history of sport, a background note on each song plus short biographies of the composers and lyricists. The CD would make an unusual Christmas or birthday gift for a sports-loving friend. Strongly recommended! Tom Dawson, Pimlico, London, UK.
