[Coach Norm]

If you thought you had an outright chance to win the match by outscoring the other alliance, then I agree. If you did not think you had a chance to win by outscoring whether in agreement or not is another question in my mind.

Incentives should not lessen the game itself or change the strategies of the teams participating in my opinion - not matter what the level of sponsorship or involvement.

I think that the semi-finals of this regional are more realistic to what alliances should expect in elimination matches. Defense was actually played and resulted in missed shots and mishandled balls in the process.
