1) I fail to see the gracious professionalism in cheating your way through the playoffs with altered balls. Cough. Cough.

2) No team name needed.
I'm WELL aware of FIRST's stated reason. However, having never attended championship with a team that didn't at least have a semi competitive robot I don't know what teams who aren't semi competitive (i.e. lose wheels) find fun at Championship. I've never enjoyed feeling outclassed.

1) Former Michigander here - wait, there's more than 1 playoff game?
