Overall, a very poor performance in week one.

-Lack of decent prep for the majority of teams is costing ALL teams to do poorly
Most drivers don't really know what to do, ever.

-G40 seems to be a real tough rule. While I definitely understand the reasoning behind the rule, I don't think that teams

-Blue alliance gameday is awesome for viewing streams, but few streams are decent. They are of low quality, and often show useless stuff (stop filming the robot signal lights!!!)

-Scores are all over the place.

-Your alliance partners and opponents decide if you're going to win the match, not the quality/skill of your team.

-The high goal sucks. I've watched a team throw a ball, have it bounce out, pick it up, shoot, have it bounce out again, then run out of time. Unless this was an intentional challenge (which isn't at all shown in the team model of the field), FIRST needs to fix this. It shouldn't be too hard, it's just a hole in a wall. It doesn't get too much simpler than that.
