Re: Removing time and score from big screen during elimination matches

I don't like the idea of not having the time/score display visible for the entire match one bit. The timers above the drivers' stations are useless since they blend in with the team number displays. Also, until FIRST can find a way to show all of the action on the field reliably and without compromising the ease of viewing (not showing closeups of RSLs for a quarter of the match would be a start) the scores are the only way to get an idea of what is happening on the field when the camera is facing the wrong direction. Some of the webcast footage and archived videos show about 5% of the action, The other 95% must be either inferred from the score, or described by the MC. That means if you take down the scores and a lot is happening on the field, as is often the case in elims, the webcast audience is left in the dark and incredibly bored (since MCs can't see and describe everything).
