Re: PNW 2006 -- The Pacific Northwest Regional in Portland

One thing that consistently disappoints me about the FIRST games is that there's often a 'reach' goal that is very difficult to achieve - such as using the camera to aim and fire at the top goal this year - that is easily shut down by simply having a box on wheels hit the robot repeatedly. It's too bad that a robot which is able to hit the target repeatedly (no small task!) can be shut down by such a robot.

Not bashing anyone or anything, just an observation.
