I haven't been around for long, but here's what I gathered from some earlier years that aren't as covered:

2003: From what I understand, Wildstand (111) has it for this year. They earned their first of three world championships this year. They had a robot design and strategy that both earned them the most points in the match, and prevented the opposing alliance from doing so by blocking them all off from getting to the top of the ramp for the end game. One of the earlier versions of a choke hold strategy before FIRST started working to phase them out.

2004: 67 was almost definitely the one to note this year. The last year of 2v2, every elimination alliance (which still had 3 teams) was required to rotate all robots around so they all played at least once. 67 played in every elimination match that year, up until their elimination in the first rounds of Einstein.

2005: I believe 67 could be considered the team for this year for a number of reasons. This was 67's 5-banner year (Regional win, Regional Chairman's, Division win, Einstein win, Championship Chairman's win). That's not a feat most teams accomplished. I honestly can't say I know a lot about this year, I just know 67 had a starstruck season.

2006: 25 or 1114 could both be considered for this spot. 25 is a solid pick, having gone undefeated the entire season (through 2 regionals) up until a late qualification match on Newton. And all without floor loading... They won Newton and made it to the finals of Einstein. 1114 was 28-2 in regional qualification matches, winning 3 regionals and being the #1 seed and captain of those alliances twice. The lost one qualification match on Curie and were finalists in their division.
