Re: Un happy times

Competitions can be very stressful and tiring and sometimes people will lose their cool. I'm not excusing the behavior, just trying to explain why it can happen.

Decisions on the future of the team are best made after everyone has rested and the team has a chance to review the season, good and bad. Take stock of what you have accomplished and the potential your team has for improvement. It's not easy, but a FIRST robotics team is very rewarding.

Like John said earlier, getting a robot to the competition is a great achievement in many ways. Finishing 15th is pretty darn good but you will soon find out that where you finish at the competition is only one aspect of what your team can accomplish. Take some time and discover as a team what the other rewards of being a team are, you will not be disappointed.

Good luck to your team.
