Re: Team update 3/6/2012

I'm glad to see this change after competing in week 1. Balls under the bridge definitely added challenge to the game play but it was a challenge we all knew was coming. I think FIRST has done a great job with the bridges as there is only so much they can simulate (after competing at a FIRST scrimmage balls and bridges weren't a noticeable issue because bridge play was not as common) but they did a great job with the ramps to keep balls from getting stuck far back. This change should really improve the huge number of balls that don't have enough inertia to get stuck and come to rest at the bottom of the lexan plate just enough to interfere with the bridge.

Thanks FIRST!
