Not gonna lie, I really wanted this win bad! We had a machine and an alliance that could have done it. This entire competition was insane. I'm not sure I've ever been to an event that had this level of machines, especially in the tournament. Losing scores of 190+ are just crazy.

It was great seeing all the awesome people at the event. Coming to MSC is almost like a home coming....just way to many people to list. Thanks to all the awesome volunteers.

Special thanks for Rob and Eric for taking such good care of us/our robot. You guys rock! Best FTAs in the world.

Congrats to 469, 3539, and 217. I'm not sure we could have lost to any more friends than this alliance. You guys were unbelieveable. If I could have gotten my head out of out robot's drivetrain, I would have loved to see the awesome power of this alliance. I will be sure to go back and re-watch your matches.

469 - Someday, someday, we'll get another chance to play together. Hopefully, that chance comes in 2 weeks. You guys are awesome to hang with at the competition. Our teams could not have more fun together! You guys are the best robot in Michigan.

3539 - Our Troy partners. If I thought we had a shot to play together, we would have loved to try it together again. You guys really pulled it together with that auton today. Just amazing.

217 - We were hoping they would over look you. We were all set to make the pick, until #2 snatched you up. You guys were hands down the best full-back we have had this season. I was really worried when we saw that 2337 was going to have to try and push you guys out of our shooting lane.

Mike and Paul - Congrats on winning together! Knowing you guys, it must have been both awesome and weird all at the same time.

Congrats to 27, 503, and 2337 on the Chairman's award! You guys deserve it.

To 2054 and 2337 - I'm sorry we had so many issues with the robot. It had been pretty solid up until the eliminations. This alliance had so much potential. I think we only unleashed it's full power once, in F1.

2054 - You guys were great. You really carried us there for a couple of matches. Once again our drivetrain issues (same @ WM-2011) ruin a chance to win with you guys.

2337 - So glad we could FINALLY get a chance to play with you guys. You guys played our fullback role perfectly. It's so nice to be able to get such a smart and reliable team at the 24th pick.

I need some serious rest....
