We have never been in the Top25 list with any of our bots but our team is still proud of our past accomplishments and will always strive to improve year after year.

Hey John, couldn't pay your way into the Top25? $300 dollars and could have done more? ;)

Even before I joined the crew it has always been my focus to try and market 2826 the best we can. Not so we get on the top 25, but so other teams know who we are and talk about us. Why? Because when we are not an alliance captain, I want my team positioned in the mind of the alliance captain stakeholder that handles who selects what team so I am picked.

I realize that actually just half joking, our season is done we had a blast. I have to say though there are a ton of young teams I saw in the past two weeks that give many of the big teams fits..things are looking up for the next gen of FRC . heck a rookie took SD #1 and 5817 has the hardest shot I've ever seen. 5136 was really good and fast lowbar HG shooter too.

I wish all the rookies/young teams well that are going to St. Louis go get them.

Amazingly said.

Our mentors are pretty crappy but we try real hard; is there a top 25 for trying real hard?

Perhaps an honorable mention for try hards? Good luck with your mentors...

Hi Everyone,

I'm just checking in to say that I really appreciate this show that you guys run! If it weren't for this show I never would have learned of amazing teams like 1648 or 33!

Thanks and keep up the great work.

Hey Boltman,

I know it can be hard to not be on the top of the list in a public poll but sometimes the truth hurts! I ran for city council once and didnt even make it onto the ballot...
That being said, maybe if you have a better showing or build a better bot (I hope so! Cheering for you guys) then you'll be able to crack the top list!

Just keep everything tightened down and never stop working away at it and you'll make a robot that people will want to talk about some day!

Best Regards,
RM

It is nice to see the Average Joes (3620) mentioned here for the first time. For the moment we have the highest OPR in Michigan: 47.8 -- someone please correct me if I missed a higher one. But of course, it is statistically more likely that you will believe statistics when you like what they say about you. ;)

As a viewer of this video, that whole... everything... was just the single best FRC match I have ever seen. And I had ringside seats to 2014 Einstein [1].




[1] Technically I also had ringside seats to 2012 Einstein but decided stuffing my face with brownies was a better idea until I got removed from the volunteer lounge due to the storm [2]



[2] And totally not cuz they were out of brownies and I'd started in on cookies.
