Re: Where's the Gracious Professionalism?
FIRST: The I stands for Inspiration.
A lot of the big issues that have arisen this season have impacted a large quantity of students, mentors and teams negatively.
No one should have to leave a season feeling shorted out of anything less than a great experience. Everyone deserves a fair chance. A fair chance to play the game, a fair chance to be heard and reasoned with, a fair chance to win, a fair chance to experience the beauty of this program.
I stand firm on everything I've said so far, simply because of this:
Many things that have happened this year are simply un-inspiring. Sure, we all like to win and some of us compete very hard to do so, but at the end of the day, I realize this is a by-product of the program. However, when we fail to uphold the very credence of our program, when we go against the very core of the Mission and Vision of FIRST, then something has to change.
