No I do not. It is damaging to FIRST. You explain it to the public and they look at you like you are crazy.

FIRST wants to avoid the negative things that happen in sports. Everything in sports is not negative. We threw the "baby out with the bath water". The system is a little too PC.

It takes the 'C' out of FRC and makes it the FRPCC. Worse than restrictor plate racing in NASCAR.

We need to provide incentive for teams to help other teams get ready for the competition.

But when it is "time to compete" it is "time to compete"...... boogity boogity !

while I'm here:

it would have been nice to have a ball score = 3 points, a penalty = 1 point, and hanging around 6 points or autonomous score 6 points.
