Basketball?

I have always had the opinion that basketball is not the right name for the sport, it can cause confusion! The point is you put the ball in the basket not the basket in the ball.
Ballbasket sounds a lot better and in the right order.

Good idea. The only problem is that the "basket" is not really a basket, which may cause more confusion. How about BallHoop?

Yep I can see the logic in that

by your logic, football means 'kick/hitting the foot with the ball' instead of kick the ball with the foot?

No no your trying to hard now because doing it your way it would surely have to be "Kick off,pass,dribble,foot,ball,net!!! It just sounds a bit too silly. But you could have Football-Net I'll give you that one but I just think it will get shortened to football anyway

I realise the basket did use to be a basket, but we have to move with the times. Otherwise we'd still be playing Footpigs bladder
