Mind you, at least we're all working to the same parameters... and the different coloured bumpers wouldn't make provisions for the lane counter, which will matter, I think.

This is probably what refs will wish for teams to have. Being able to tell a team's alliance by any fast glance will help them 30 times over in the case something needs to be called.

There should be a petition that calls for teams to design interchangeable colored bumpers for the sake of our refs since this is their toughest game too.
