So someone predicted foul play, then observed an outcome that could have had any number of (simpler, much more common) causes, therefore it must be foul play? Presumably this person (who feels qualified to call "conspiracy" when he/she sees it) also knows that the real-time score displayed during the match is unofficial?

Then they directed you to go drag a team's reputation through the mud on a public forum?

Sounds like there was indeed some despicable behavior at the Arkansas Regional. If you do indeed send a letter to FIRST, I hope you include the identity of this/these person(s) in its contents.
