PUT A WHITE STRIPE AROUND THE AUTONOMOUS BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't tell you how many times teams on the field and people in the stands lost track of the fact that the ball being played was an auton ball that rebounded down the length of the field.

Just put a stripe on the ball so people can tell there is a difference.
It's really not that hard. If you've had possession of a ball and there are no lights on the high goal, then it's an autonomous ball. If your coach can't keep track of this, good luck to them when there are 6 robots and a red and blue ball in one tiny corner of the field. That's where it really gets fun (until 610 picks up the wrong ball ).
