Likewise, this means that the field reset crew has to have several balls, as the distance between the goals and the balls is all across the field (I couldn't imagine them running back & forth in front of the crowd to deliver the balls to the other side.

Thoughts?
That's another thing that one of my teammates noticed but I didn't put much thought into. I assumed it was just an error or a misprint, but what if it's not? I mean, that's a pretty big error to make, placing the wrong color ball in both slots. At this point I feel like I'm grasping at thin air, but this is just another reason for me to be super suspicious.

I need sleep.
