If this is true, I find it to unacceptable. The orbit fall fiasco last year was BAD, so I would think FIRST would take as many measures as possible to avoid that in the future. I definitely like the soccer ball as a game piece, but as others have said here, not all of them react the same. I would think that choosing this companies ball as THE ball of the 2010 FRC game would warrant a phone call to let them know...
