Team 968 had to wait almost 40 seconds to finish shooting their hopper full of balls in an elimination match on Newton, because of how slow the pokey stick guy was.

Not to mention the fact that they knocked numerous balls out of the goal entirely, while trying to get them to fall through the tube.

Not much that could be done about that, though.
