I don't think Brandon necessarily needs a lecture about what he posted, as much as I respect Jared and others. I'm sure he realizes what he has posted is emotionally charged, which is why he will sleep on it. He is more mature than his post reflects.
This is really the best solution to a hard day. Sleep on it, gather your thoughts, and at the end of the day, remember that this is a high school robotics competition. Yes, your hard work was diminished on the field due to terrible rulings and a flawed rule book, but don't let that diminish how hard you really worked. I know it, you know it, your kids know it. Leave it at that for now. Unfortunately, everything else is slightly out of your control.
For what it's worth, I think there is nothing wrong with speaking directly about what is wrong with FIRST on CD. I would rather see mentors post their honest opinions than sugar-coating the situation because someone might be reading these posts. I'm sure anyone from FIRST reading this understands the frustration coming from teams, and probably has thick enough skin to deal with it.

This is the most accurate description of this season I've read so far.
