I don't know about anyone else but falling stacks weren't fun to watch this weekend they were painful. I know all the work that these teams put into getting their robots to work, when 118's stack fell in the playoffs at Dallas it wasn't enjoyable for me, it hurt. I am not really looking forward to a season of feeling bad when things go wrong. I love defense and I like cheering for the underdogs, however I'm not cheering for gravity and momentum this year.
