Last night some students on our team got into a debate. Some of the team is upset that they will be missing part of the Super Bowl to work on the robot. Some are upset that they will be missing part of the Super Commercial Challenge. And the rest of us are upset that there are people that think there is something more important than getting this robot finished! What are you going to be doing on Sunday the 19th?

Our team doesn't meet on sundays, so I voted that I will be watching the super bowl. However, if our team did meet, I would go to the meeting and miss the super bowl.
now if it was college football...

You mean the AFC and NFC championship games. The Superbowl is on January 26th.
I watch pro football (except for pre-season) irregardless.
The Clarkson students will probably take the night off, and watch the game. We're scheduled to have the robot done by then, and so far we're on schedule.

I wont be watching the super bowl!
BTW I live in Columbus, Ohio(home of the Buckeyes)
People here really dont like pro-football, we are very much a College Football town!:D
We have street signs saying you cant park on saturday home games (meaning OSU football). This also means the people in Columbus have to know the game schedual to know when they can park near campus.
Go OSU?!?!?!:ahh:

I am extreemly let down by all of u... Havn't u learned anything from our founder? lol, howe are we suppose to make technology just as famous and popular as pro sports if we would rather watch the sports overall????:D
I do think that the last thing that Dean Kamen would want us to do in this situation is to forgo robotics and watch a feild of giants bash eachother over an oblong bowl.
U should be ashamed of yourself! :mad:
oh, btw... i'll be watching the superbowl:rolleyes:

Well, he said he's trying to model it after pro football... so we obviously have to know what pro football is to understand what he's trying to do. We're researching :D
I believe he said that in last year's kickoff speech, if you're wondering...

Wow...
Come on Jake...first you can't spell (comming) and now mixing up the superbowl? What are we gonna do with you. But for my answer, I will be missing probably the first half of our hometown Eagles Game to work on the robot. Bah. Hopefully, we can at least have a radio there to listen in...unlike last week.

I would be watching the game, some of the commercials are funny. Yet my FIRST team is soooo behind that every moment we have free, needs to be put into the bot.

Well that is really noticable. Concidering, that nobody know exactly who is going to the superbowl and that the superbowl is next weekend (the 26th).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who ever came up with the poll completely forgot about the halftime show. I forone will be watching it all.

I would work on this robot if we were to have a meeting at that time, however our mentors and engineers are football fans so I don't think i will have to worry about that, so GO TAMPA BAY!!!!
and you got the date wrong

In the immortal words of Zach DeLaRocha and Maynard James Keenan, "know your enemy."
Having said that, I watch professional hockey.

bandsaw + exciting play during the superbowl = bad idea!
While I'm sure some ppl will be attempting to do both, I wouldnt reccommend getting too much into the game while working with all of the power tools ;) unless you enjoy losing fingers :rolleyes:
