O, and seriously, let's face it, we weren't winning that match-up lol.
(for reference 313, 2851, 314 vs 217, 469, 2960)
Is it weird that after it was 16-1 our team started cheering for the opposing alliance to break a record? lol |
Not wierd at all, though I wasn't cheering. I was more staring in disbelief.
At one point they scored SO FAST that balls coming down the return shoot got log-jammed because they touched eachother and stopped rolling. Amazing. The announcer even made a joke of it:
"Don't worry folks - it's already 11 to 1, I'm pretty sure they're going to win no matter what."
It really was that one sided once they got there - but just like beatty way back when, there are ways to prevent them from getting in place, and a good fast bot CAN catch those balls before they go in and send them down to the other end of the field - but it's tricky!
Edit: The even sicker part is they continue to score after the game is over. Balls continue to roll down and get returned for the 10 seconds after control is cut, and the score keeps going up.
