Re: 2009 Buckeye Thoughts...

I want to give a shout out to 2835 for keeping up their team spirit after their robot failed inspection, due to their bumpers being to big, and not being allowed to compete. They still handed out their flyers and buttons to everyone with a smile on their face. I know it touched the hearts of my students and it was all they could talk about. I look forward to seeing great things from this team.

Edit: I may have the wrong team. My students associated it with 2835 because they were the ones passing the story on to them in the pits.

I would venture to say a no show isn't as bad as a non-functioning robot. At least with a no show the trailer is easily moved around.
