Just because FRC is not all about the competition on the field does not mean that FIRST is exempt from getting that part right. Not only did FIRST fail to do that in about the most public way possible last night, there have been issues all year with a FIRST-provided, unchangeable system that has far too many points of failure and often appears to break down for no discernible reason. Also, the competition itself not being fair eventually affects every part of the program.
