Re: Team 548 Einstein Statement
For additional consideration, from Frank:
Blog Date: Monday, August 20, 2012 - 09:38 Hello Teams, Team 548 contacted me recently and asked if I would be willing to publish a statement from them regarding the events on Einstein on the FRC Blog. You can find their statement here. This statement represents, in part, their Steering Committee’s understanding of events that took place during the Einstein matches. To be clear, there are some differences between this understanding of events and the events as presented in the Einstein Report. FIRST continues to stand by its report. (My emphasis). |

It gets you thinking, though, doesn't it? Was banning him from ever participating in FIRST again really the right thing to do?

Unfortunately, creating an interruption is not the way to 'make a point'. Sorry, I'm not giving anyone a pass on this one. You're supposed to listen to staff and volunteers, and this person didn't.
Good on 548 for coming forward, although the major discrepancies between their statement and FIRST's report still leaves questions for me. |

I think it's a good thing 548 came out and said this. I very much hope that they stay a respected team in our FIRST community and continue to be successful. In regards to the individual, what's been said has already been said and I don't need to go into that. Great job 548, you guys have done nothing wrong in this process, and have my respect for coming out about it.

Re: Team 548 Einstein Statement
There are some major discrepancies present here. While not to start another famous "CD-Massacre" the report and this letter do not match up. I applaud 548 for coming forth with this, it takes a lot of bravery to do that. However, the information they have been given and the conclusions they came to simply don't make sense when you stack them up against the report and individual accounts of that afternoon.
Still, kudos 548 for at least making the statement in the first place. Now we can move on a little more. -Nick |

Because the individual did this only after attempting to interact with the field personnel, I feel his actions were entirely warranted and correct. Of course, this is all predicated on 548's version of events being correct. It seems believable to me, primarily because FIRST was so vague in this area. |
