While this strategy would works in theory, I seriously doubt it would ever work in competition, even given an alliance of robots that are perfect for pulling it off. Let me reiterate. It takes atleast 30 seconds to fill a goal with small balls. I've watched enough matches to know that this time barrier can't really be broken. Now, this means that, assuming your bot can get across the field and pick up a big ball in 30 seconds, you've got 30 more seconds to drop your ball, move the full goal into balance on the bridge, tip the other goal (and pray the bridge stays balanced), and run to the endzone. Personally, I think things would take a bit longer than the 30 seconds you'd have.
