Very cool Idea. Always thought that some way of disabling an opponent would be interesting.

The only major event going on lately (that I can think of) is the robot landing on Mars. So I think that this year's game will be about the Martian landing.
Also, NASA's support and involvement in FIRST makes it even more likely. The question is how would they do that. IMHO, landing robots from the ceiling seems a bit outlandish.
