Re: 2006 Boilermaker red advantage?

I was on the red side counting balls on one of the corner goals during BMR.

This is the first that I've heard of complaints of balls being placed back into the field or in the human player area at BMR. The field crew on the red side was doing a great job from what I saw, and if a ball was shot at me (which happened I think maybe 2 or 3 times?) from the side of the field it was deposited back into the field. I believe one time one was shot over the corner of the player station, and we were instructed to place any ball shot over the player station into the human player ball stash.

I'm not saying it didn't happen maybe once or twice. Who knows, perhaps it did - we're all human and while we're trying to do a bunch of things at once, maybe a ball got placed where it shouldn't have been placed. Even if it did happen, I don't remember seeing a lot of matches being decided by 1 or 2 points at BMR.

The point is, if you see it happening, speak to the person who is doing it. We can't do a thing about it now, but you could have during the event.
