Art Dutra, I like this about you post:

The cheerleader connection. You're right--a baton is almost too obvious, and no one puts any weight to his "majorette" reply because the baton seems like a logical game piece.

I think this is one more piece of evidence in the "football" cart.

Only thing is:

I'm worried about goals with this model. The 2003 game used balls, it's true, but those balls were hefty and it was difficult to huck them very far. If you have people imitating Montana and throwing bullet passes to suspended goals, you're going to run a risk of balls flying everywhere. That's the one part that doesn't add up.

Autonomous GPS? I like it, but seriously--this can't be feasible. It would seem to make a CMU unnecessary, and (to the best of my knowledge) GPS kits aren't precise enough for what FIRST needs (e.g. a matter of inches.)
