I for one think scoring moon rocks will be disadvantageous, and 1114 will be nothing more than a glorified paper weight this season.

I don't understand how scoring points can be DISadvantageous. With 120 moon rocks on the feild, if 90 of them get scored, that is 180 points that could sway either way. And with 8 super cells if only 5-6 (apx. the same ratio) getting scored, could be 75-80 points on either side. I beleive the super cells are important for obvious reasons, however it's also obvious that the moon rocks are just as, if not, more advantageous. I beleive 1114 proved last year that if you can hurdle 7 times(akin to scoring apx. 30 moon rocks) placing (akin to scoring super cells) is not as important, even though it is still important.

just my $0.02
