On the other hand, say that she did take the time to understand it. She'd figure out the main points over the course of the game. Over the course of a season, she'd begin to figure out the penalties and some of the strategy.
Then, she watches again the next season, and it's exactly the same game.
That's the biggest difference between FIRST and any other sport. And because of that, FIRST games need to be simpler because there is no continuity. In fact, some people would argue that the game isn't the same even from regional to regional (compare 2002 pre-VCU and post VCU).
