Go to www.usfirst.org (http://www.usfirst.org) then watch or skip the intro. From there, mouse over FRC and see what happens.
If you don't see it right away, mouse on and off a few times...

That's kind of funny... I hadn't noticed that and I've been on the FIRST site many times over the past few days.

You would think they might check themselves... but everyone makes mistakes. :p

it took me a few times to realize the difference but it was kinda funny...someone should e-mail them about it. i don't know who though, does anyone else know?

Considering the site will be "un-nationalized" soon, I guess it doesn't matter. No one really noticed it and it's not that huge a mistake, it's just semi-amusing.

Well, it looks like the webmaster wasn't the only one to forget a letter or two - I found this guy lurking on a train case behind the "Eistein" field :)

It's an easy mistake to make, but maybe I'm just saying that because once I printed out a nice 8x10 photo to frame for a sponsor and realized I had put "Herndon High School Robitics Team 116" on the photo... thankfully I caught it before I framed it... however, ever since then I've kind of always thought of our team as a robitics team...

Hey, maybe it's a hint for next year's game... robotic frogs... or would that be ribitics?
