Sounds to me to be what FIRST is all about.

sounds good Aidan- you know we will play whatever comes up. It would be great to bring basketball players into robotics and such- no argument there.

But wouldn't it be more of a spectacle if robots were to do what the humans are assigned. This IS a robot competition. By restricting the ability of the robots to defend their goals a chunk of that competition is eliminated. I still think we are missing the boat here.
