The problem with comparing this to traditional sports is that it just isn't. What other sport is made up of groups of teams that switch all the time and play short matches to determine who plays the best? In my eyes the end game in a traditional sport would be like fouling in basketball. It is a risk you take toward the end of the game, but at least in robotics it doesn't make the last thirty seconds take a half hour to play.

I always thought the games have been fun to watch and exciting and the endgame was the thing that made people stop and be at a loss for words. The endgame is what was always able to sell sponsors and we actually lost a small sponsor due to there not being a jaw dropping task at the end of the game last year.

I would love to have it back, I think the endgame is one of the things that really tested creativity and saw some amazing solutions over the years.
