Haha right... the Beach Bots are missing what it means to be on a FIRST team.

But seriously, a lot of teams use the off-season to scrape together funding so they can simply exist next year, and you're upset that they didn't make a documentary video in their off-season instead?

Our team is busy designing a practice drive and teaching students how to CAD, improving our relationships with sponsors, using our previous season's robot to demonstrate & inspire at football games every week, and more. It's my job to ensure our students are ready for build season and I'm sorry to say that making a documentary video doesn't help us out in that aspect.

Every team has their priorities and I don't think you have the right to make a judgement call on a team's character because they didn't do a video for FIRST.
