I´ve just seen some basketball match on TV and had funny idea. What if some disortographic wizard misspelled basketball as bastetball? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastet) What would consequences be? Would all players turn into furry cats playing with ball? How would they cope? I´m quite tempted to turn this into story somehow... though I´m not sure if it is enough as story base. What do you think? I´d appreciate your comments.
Thank you.

It's a CATastrophy!
The fur would be flying.
The seventh inning stretch would become a nap time. And stealing bases? They would actually get stolen or at least pounced on.
Then there would be the controversy if illegal pitches such as the catnip and yarn balls.
Mind you cats are notoriously hard to organize so it might be hard to field a team.
Don't even ask what the batters BOX would be replaced with. Thankfully they make liners for them now.

My cats would love this game.

P.S. Oh you where referring to basketball. Well the net is kind of like a bunch of strings so...
And dribbling with claws would be a problem.
Though as cats are so athletic dunks and the like would be spectacular. Also blocked shots.

This could be fun.
Just bat it around and play with it he he he. I think it could be the start of something really funny. Remember that Bast has two sides. The second one is very fierce and battles evil like Set the snake. Bast is a complex goddess with direct ties to Ra and Isis so there is another branch to play on.
But the Wizard and the magic toy gone wrong is a really funny premise as a starting point. Maybe it's Loki's cat's toy; beings he is a god of mischief.
