Quite right. With all this talk of shooting 10+ balls/sec into the center goal, not having seen the real setup up close, I wonder if it's possible to saturate and jam the goal full of balls so that they can't properly fall one by one down the scoring tube?

If this is possible, I wonder if a FIRST volunteer or ref is supposed to jar the balls loose when jammed or just leave them alone.
