I know these are 148's swerve (even though it's not sheet metal:D ), but how were these made? A solid block of aluminum? If so, that's awesome :cool:

Guys, these are clearly not 254's. I mean come on, they're not even slightly blue. :p

I predict that atleast 1 person is going to get hit by a ball scored through the goal week 1.

I also predict that FRC will eventually put nets up behind the goals of some sort to protect innocent viewers.

We were both right! Although I would never have guessed that 1114 would be the goalie.

Other prediction hindsights:

Truss catching was undervalued and never really caught on.
Human Player utilization was HUGE!
The Build Blitz/Ri3D/TBD pickups were fine and were used by a majority of (good) teams.
The 1114 design worked fine, and was used again by 1114 and MANY other successful teams.
Swerve still hasn't won Einstein yet?
Shooting could be worked around at district/regional matches, but your alliance had to shoot 10's to win the event.
Defense WAS everybody's part time job/not their career.
FIRST never put nets up to stop the balls from hitting people.

What else did I miss.

I don't agree with this, events could definitely be won with the one point goal.

He's likely referencing the Southfield district, where the 7th seed made an excellent appearance with 3-assist low goal cycles, but lost to faster, 2-assist high goal cycles. While I've seen matches won that way, and it happened a lot in champs qualifications, once weeks 3 and 4 hit, elims were too high caliber to consider strictly 31 point cycles as a valid strategy.

We won Livonia and were finalists at Lansing with our alliances shooting no high goals after autonomous.
