Chris,

I agree with you about it being two different games. But, this has always been the case with FIRST to some degree. It used to be 1 on 1 from the quarter-finals on while the game was 3 teams at a time in the early stages of the tourney. Last year it was 'score score score' -- until the elimination rounds and then it became 'get the double and have more triples.' Again, this resulted in two very different games. This year is not really all that different in that respect.

The thing I do find strange is the method of gaining QP's

One way I try to explain the weirdness is to say it is like playing the entire MLB season keeping score and counting wins but then deciding who gets into the playoffs by the number of bunts a team managed to execute successfully. Then, having decided who is in the playoffs, everyone is swinging for the fences because teams that win advance to the next round.

It makes for a very weird season.

Just my view of it.

Joe J.
