I'm not sure why you wouldn't expect FIRST to fix the field... they've fixed the field in the past when the field elements were causing issues that weren't a part of the intent of the field design. In 2012, they redid the pieces under the bridge so the balls would roll out more easily. In 2013, they added a piece to connect the chains so frisbees bounced out less. This tuesday's team update will be huge, and I'm looking forward to what FIRST has to say about what went right and what went wrong.
