I understand where you're coming from...since I don't want to see our HP get hurt (seeing as how it might be me  ) ...but I don't really see how the field could be made 'safer.' I mean, if you just kinda watch where you step, you should be alright. I understand there are slip-ups, but what can FIRST actually do to make it safe? Put padding around the entire thing? I don't think it's possible to make it so nobody gets hurt and still have the same game.
