Maybe CVR can set a new standard for play this season. Less "Robot Bashing" and more "Robot Scoring".

Sure, defense has it's place, but so does all out scoring!
Don't get me wrong, defense WILL BE PLAYED! I just hate to see teams bust their back sides for 6+ weeks and have their robot destroyed in 160 seconds.

If you ignore all the learning that has taken place in those 6+ weeks, and just look at the money spent, it is CRAZY expensive! If you only go to one competition, you can estimate $500+ per round of competition. Yes, that amount drops as you add in practice rounds and eliminations, but what about the teams that don't make it in?

I'm not advocating we frown on defense, it certainly has it's place. I'm just suggesting we think about setting a new standard.

CVR is going to be AWESOME!! Let's help each other set a new national scoring record!!
