"Rugby Ball" is definitely a weird way to spell "Hockey Puck."

Robots already have agility on carpet that closely approaches that of skaters on ice. (NO MORE REGOLITH PLEASE!) Some vintage FIRST mobile goals and we're all set.

I hope FRC robots stay "big", it plays a big part in what makes them so impressive. We know that a championship winning Vex robot (or FLL robot) is a heck of a lot more impressive from an engineering point of view than an average FRC robot. However, I think it is a lot harder to prove that to Joe Schmoe who just came in off the street.
