Re: We was robbed!!!

Well, something similar happened to us in Portland. The refs made a mistake and counted the penalties against our alliance on the other one. They were mistaken and we thought we would be in the semis. They revised it and gave the game to the other alliance. Our alliance accepted that! It was just right! Unfortunately, our robot broke down and we lost the third match! Whatever shaking hands and being happy! Celebrate FIRST! Where is your GRACIOUS PROFESSIONALISM? I think we did the right thing, went home, improved our robot and won in Seattle! Just imagine how you would have felt on the other side.
The fact is a malfunction on one side of the field is a big disadvantage and requires a replay! I think that's a rather logical consequence!
