Re: 2012-Greater Toronto Regional East

Last year, I had never been to a robotics competition, never seen the power of great teams competing. Then I joined my high schools FRC team and we built a PVC and wood robot. After that robot was shipped, I was watching live webcasta and happened to see 1114 at GTR-E. I was instantly inspired. They have such a clean and well functioning robot every year, and it is hard to not be inspired by them. When I see a great robot, I want to strive to build something to compete with it, I don't get shut down because it is better than my robot. Team should be inspired to do want to be like those teams, not to want to cripple them so that they don't win. All I am saying is that I respect the better teams, not fell hurt because they are so good.
