Re: pic: Homemade Orbit Ball! (White Paper Coming Soon)

This game piece fiasco is absurd. Our team is very strapped on money this year and we cannot justify spending 100 dollars for enough gameballs to adequately test our manipulator. At the very least we should of been supplied 5 balls in the KOP.

If the game uses 128 balls on a field at a time, FIRST should ship more than 1 game ball to a team. I mean we all got one trackball which is MONSTROUS and ROBUST compared to this shoddily constructed item. We need around 10 balls to accurately test any manipulator we use but why should we have to pay 100 dollars plus shipping for that privaledge? Not only that but have to jump through hoops and apply on the website to even get a chance to give FIRST our money for balls we should of been supplied with anyways. I think i've pretty adequately described my extreme distaste over this issue so i'll stop ranting now.
