I'm wondering if it was being called wrong all season long, and it's correct now.
I didn't see these matches this morning, so I'm not quite sure what happened. I'm assuming there were two robots trying to get on the bridge, and they slid down and one of their bumpers stopped them both from rolling further. It sounds to me like you're saying there were three robots involved?
