Joe Johnson has a reputation beyond repute

Lots to like

Lots to like (imho)

Easily the most causal viewer friendly game we've had in years (perhaps ever).
Can explain the game to Grandma in 10 seconds
Favors scoring
No descoring
2 places to score and only 1 robot to defend
No messing if they tip over
No messing with robots when trying to elevate or suspend
should be many exciting finishes

Of course, there are things that I am less happy about (may degrade into a penalty fest if teams are stupid) but nothing I can see that is a deal breaker.

I suspect that by the end of the season it will be considered one of the best games FIRST has had in the 1st 20 years.
