If I can, then consider all the other 42 teams in the crowd. Let's let them all go up and stand in the box then, too.

The issue is that it HAS been complained about, and that the ref's just brushed off all the previous allegations.

It's not OUR fault if other matches conducted previously that we did NOT participate in were called incorrectly.

If it was, then I will gladly go stand in the box to complain about every rule that I think is scored incorrectly from now on.

I am sure that FIRST does not promote that kind of anarchy, letting every team complain about every rule.
