In the spirit of this thread's inspiration, I will issue a challenge. Before your next post, go explain this situation to someone who is unfamiliar. That's the easy part. The hard part is that I challenge you to explain it from a perspective that opposes your own.
If you hate that this happened: say why teams might have done it, talk about how awesome it must have been to have the whole arena cheer for EVERY score, talk about how tough fundraising is, talk about the reason they might have agreed to do this.
If you see no problem with it: say how people outside might feel FIRST got cheated by the situation, talk about talk about how it's likely that not everyone on each team got a vote, talk about how it might sound at face value.

There will be no conclusion to this topic. The debate could go on forever. Do your best to see it in another light, and you will have won this argument.
