I gotta ask, why did your team say yes to 2152 in South Florida then? The competition wasn't that deep I admit but you were next up in the pick order so the difference would have been negligible.

EDIT: Also 21 your other alliance partner ran mecanum this year, did your team try to talk 2152 out of it or no?
