But you know what? It just doesn't matter. If this was the policy, we should have been told AT KICKOFF about such practices. Thats my take. CHanges of this magnitude cannot happen.
It's like a company, deisigning a product. The product is on schedule, and is set to be finished on time. Then, The customer calls and says that no computers should be used for the remainder of the project, but the deadline is still the same. The designer does not finish on time, and is subsequently given a lower pay rate than they should have for missing their deadline.

Not cool.
I agree, if First is going to make a rule change of this nature, then they should do it at the beginning of next season, so we know in advance what we can, and cannot do at competition
