this video was great, i love FIRST and defense,, i just think FIRST is starting to be more like the NBA, stooping the defense and focusing on the offense. i mean, no more wedges, the addition of bumpers adn the flag system (which doesn't really make a difference.)

you need balance, let there be some hard hits, because there are too many great offensive plays, not enough plays that prevent offensive plays from happening

The anti-wedge rule is good. A tipped robot is out for a match and it is rather boring.

The bumpers promote defense, not discourage it.

Defense is heavy enough this year already. It is rare (even for top teams) to score enough to beat a double lift.
