Re: pic: 604's Arm

It's such a shame that people will try to do anything they can on the field in order to win in this competition, even resort to what in hockey the equivalent would be a "Check from Behind." I know this is a competition, but these people spent the same 6-weeks that the rest of you did designing and building your robot and this is what they got in the end; a broken arm. At the very least I'd hope that the offending team(s) came over to appologize and offer any assistance they could to help repair it. There are plently of good, honest, and fair ways to play defense in FIRST that don't come near causing this kind of damage. This is terrible.

Not to mention this was done to the SVR Chairman's Award winning team
