This thread is like a characature of the internet on SNL.

Really.

"This sucks!"

"No, It doesn't"

"Does too"

"Not, what really stinks is that over there"

"I LOVE that over there and besides, THIS sucks"

and so it goes.

Seriously folks, let's calm down a bit.

This game is not perfect. These rules are not perfect. FIRST is not perfect. I am not perfect (and we all know YOU suck ;-)

Bottom line: The sky is not falling in. While not perfect, this game is pretty good. FIRST has done a pretty darn good job.

I think we should all a take a few deep breaths and get on with deciding how we are going to play this pretty darn good game.
