I don't think the blue robot, that appears to touch the stuck ball at 1:35 in the video, was deliberately trying to jam it under the CDF. But I can understand how the referees might have seen it that way, and they certainly had the best view. In any case I agree it is a tough call to take.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

This reminds me a lot of how millennials are regularly called out for simply being younger and having different perspectives. In the end it's the ones who are calling them out in unprofessional in ways that end up embarrassing themselves and looking uninformed. - Karthik [more]
