all that means is FIRST is giving us a little leeway with the weight this year you are allowed to be 120lbs, or you can be "close enough" +/- 8 lbs

Or maybe we're limited to 8 puonds..... lol

hmm this fish seems to be a blue angel fish (like dora from finding nemo)

maybe our alliance will be like schools of fish that will have to work together, and the driver stations will all be tethered together (hence one eye and the AT&T symbol)

and there will be an alliance (the black alliance) that is a bunch of autonomously programmed robots playing some kinda defense (deployed by FIRST)

Autonomous robots play dirty. Best to go with a low CG.

We will all know exactly what the 2008 FRC game is going to be very soon. On January 5th, 2008, to be precise.

Now stop reading CD, do your homework, eat your peas, brush your teeth, and go to bed. Any time you spend speculating as to what Dave's ravings might mean is completely wasted.

I have heard some weired ideas I wouldn't think its going to be an areal game I mean come on how are u going to get a robot to fly with big heavy stuff that comes in the kit. And water I don't think so how safe is that?..... Its not even so the kite looks like it laying down on a surface.

Maybe the kite refers to a robot operated teeter totter. One alliance robot goes on one end and another robot pulls down on the other end to lift it up. The teeter totter would be a field element. Maybe 8 pounds refers to the weight of a new type of battery they have chosen. Maybe that is why the battery was not included in the weight last year.
