Hi LeelandS,

I'm going against my better judgement to post in this thread about 2010 (since it still holds a special joyful and painful place in my heart)...especially since it's a thread with this topic... However, I just wanted to give you some insight that maybe you wouldn't know about our season... This is in no way to change your opinion or anything else, but maybe just to explain...

In basically all of our qualification matches, we had partners that told us they could score and would score and then our job was simple, park in the tunnel and wait for the balls... Of course, maybe this didn't always happen as designed so there we were...parked in the tunnel for many seconds (or minutes) relying on our partners... So, yes, your conclusion is "correct"...however...there were sometimes reasons behind this lower scores that maybe were not under our influence...

Not that any of this means we should be listed for 2010...
