No team is perfect, nor will they ever be. Every team has its struggles, whether those are internal or brought out into the open.

Although I will agree that gracious professionalism seems to be heading on the downward spiral, I urge you to rethink your opinions. How many teams are dedicated to helping rookies, or creating forums for public awareness and communication, or lend a hand to a team in need?

For every team in FIRST that seems to have lost their grip on what this whole competition is about, there are one hundred more teams who come to FIRST not to win, but to learn and succeed.

Who says that we should rant about teams that are losing hold of the FIRST ideals? I've got a better idea- let's help them to remember what FIRST is all about - helping create our students' futures.
