Re: Archimedes 2009
Jeff,
Thanks for the kind words. It took a ton of practice to be able to pick up balls as well as we did. Between pinning practice, 2 minute drills and other maintenance work we spent a lot of time getting our drivers used to picking up balls. We pretty much ran our practice robot to the point where we couldn't run it anymore.
Really, it's tough to judge a team in 7-9 matches. Especially in this game. If I were in 1114's position I don't know if I would have picked us. We had a couple of matches where we didn't play our best and I'm sure that left a big question mark in terms of our consistency.
Even if 1114 picked us, who knows if we could have beat 222, 1218 and 2753. One thing this game has taught me is that NOTHING is guaranteed. No matter how good your alliance looks on paper. I've played in matches this year where it looked like we should have dominated, but barely squeaked out a win or even lost the match.
