Re: Gracious Professionalism
This kind of event is typical for FIRST, atypical for other sports:
2014 Midwest Regional Alliance Selection.
Teams 71 and 4096 ask Saber Robotics of Franklin, WI, FIRST Team 2506, to join their alliance. The representative from 2506 has a discussion with the other two reps before announcing they accept the invitation.
Turns out Saber was having some problems, and weren't sure their robot was going to be 100% for the eliminations (they were, and imho were underutilized). So they offered to reject the invitation and go home (they were not a top 8 seed), rather than hinder the alliance.
