A Request From a Dad Regarding Robot Videos

Greetings,
I love robot videos. My three year old son loves robot videos as well. He likes them so much he has figured out how to watch them via the youtube app on my wife's Ipad. Robots have become a way of bonding with my son as he crawls into my lap to ask to watch robot videos with me.

I thought FRC robot videos were safe havens for my son on the interwebs. Last night, as he was watching a few robot videos right before bed time, I heard a song come up on the Ipad that was completely inappropriate for young ears. I walked over thinking my son had accidentally switched to another topic on youtube, but to my chagrin, there was an FRC robot on the screen running around to this rather interesting music choice.

I know a lot of these videos are made by students and they pick music that is popular at the time. Students, please remember that your youtube videos are representing your team and FIRST as a whole. For the sake of my sanity, choose music that your grandmother wouldn't blush to listen to :-). You will make all the parents of young robot obsessed kids very happy.

Thank you for your consideration.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
