Do you really believe that the other robots are on the field just so you can bang on them? Do you really believe that you have some sort of "right" to pound on them just because you're on the field at the same time?
Is it the fault of "offensive" teams that you require a robot to play defense on and they don't?
I really hope if someone tells you ahead of a practice match that they'd prefer that you not play defense on them that you'd respect their wishes. Some teams are working out bugs in their scoring mechanisms and want a chance to practice with it. Of course it will be harder to score when being defended, but that doesn't mean that undefended practice time is not valuable.
The fact that your team requires another team to practice against is your problem, not theirs.
