Re: Bumper Numbers?
I'll echo the sentiments about not reading too much onto this year's requirements from last years rules.
Bumper numbers were enough of an issue to inspections last year, that I'd be surprised if they weren't more specifically defined this year.
With more and more people watching online with fuzzy at best video feeds and with events taking place in bigger venues where people are sitting further away, the readability of the numbers is more important than ever. It's hard enough for the public to follow our game as it is. The ability to identify their favorite team on the field is necessary.
There are plenty of places on the robot to get creative and artsy. The team numbers on the bumpers is not one of them.
