Eh, I’m pretty American, but I think I started the post with this image of what a “soccer-like” game would look like if hands could be used and the ball size was a baseball (i.e., the size of a rock you’d throw at an animal to get it run as part of hunting), and then think of deviations/restrictions to that. Yeah, basketballs are perfect for dribbling, etc., but unwieldly for what I had in mind. As to football, you’re right: it’s good for passing. For some reason, my mental image had players with mitts on, which wouldn’t work well with footballs.

Speedball 2 : Brutal Deluxe came to mind immediately.
