I can't let you openly mock us like that. It's on!

Here's another set of definitions for you to chew on:

Offense (Midwest Version) - When a robot uses cleverly, beautifully, and specifically, designed assemblies to score lots of points for their alliance, resulting in victory.

Offense (Northeast Version) - Repeatedly bash, ram, or block the opponent in the hopes that they get confused and score for your alliance.

If you're talking football, I've got one for you. Superbowl XX - Bears vs Patriots. Best defensive team ever vs well...I don't know if the Pats were good at anything that year. Result: 46-10 victory for the Midwest; Northeast goes home and cries. I suppose you'll blame it on the ugly uniforms. Before you mock me for going back almost 20 years for my example, just remember that I'm clinging to my childhood memories of the Bears being a great team.

Who's going to respond first, JVN or Grady? This sure is fun
