So one of our team members (one known for having oddball ideas) was presenting an idea of his to the team. It involved a claw that could pick up the ball, and set it on top of the flat part of the arm, on a platform attached to a bungee. Then a pneumatic would lift the platform up to 45 degrees and that would put tension in the bungee. Then we release a catch and the bungee makes the ball go flying.

At some point in his presentation, I say "So it's basically a giant crossbow, right?"

Funny stuff.
