Re: Team 71's 2002 robot

I wasn't around in 2002 (FLL maybe) but from this video on the HOT team site link
it looks like it was really hard to overcome the Beast's ability to grab onto all three of the goals in the first seconds of the match. The HOTBOT tried to ram their arm, and that match the Beast only grabbed two goals. BUT, they also grabbed onto our robot and dragged it with them for the rest of the match.

I'm curious as to why 71 didn't grab any of the goals in the second Einstein final match (from the vids on TBA).
