In 1940, heeding the advice of influential team owners Tim Mara of the New York Giants and George Halas of the Chicago Bears, the NFL selected Wilson as the league's official football supplier.

Sports reviews of Wilson F1100 Official NFL Game FootballCustomer Review: My Football Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
My Wilson F1100 Official NFL Game Football arrived days before it was scheduled to and in excellent condition. I would like to thank you for the fast shipping and the good quality of this product.
I would, also, like to see you open up a line of hand-sewn NFL team logo patches. I think that would be a good collector's item.
Your satisfied customer,
David Ewing
Customer Review: Great Ball Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Beautiful ball! As a lot of reviews mention, the ball is very "hard". It's hard to imagine pros catching these balls when they're fired out of Favre's or Cutler's cannon. I would recommend buying receivers gloves if you use this ball more than casually. Easy to grip and fun to throw. Not recommended for children for the obvious size of the ball and the chance of them ruining it on the pavement...
Customer Review: Wilson F1100 Official NFL Game Footballs Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I was a guest of Gregg Williams the Defensive Coordinator of the New Orleans Saints for the Monday night football game versus New England on November 30th. I wanted to bring down some Official NFL Game Footballs to get autographed and Amazon.com had the balls cheaper than anyone else by $30.00. Not only did I buy 4 footballs, but they were delivered in 2 or 3 days which was fantastic.
Customer Review: No comparison to the REAL DEAL! Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Although it merely sits on a shelf, this Official Game Ball grabs the eye and says, "Now that's a fan!" Someday, my boys will be old enough play with it, and when that day comes, it will be official; time to get another one, just for me! For now, it sits next to the TV, with my mini helmets, pleading for all who come and sit to, "LOOK AT ME!"
