They are just volunteers, and people make mistakes....
Hate to burst your bubble man, but life is not perfect. I'm sorry to hear you all could lose your sponsership, but it is part of FIRST. In 97 we lost our sponsor and sure it upset us, but we figured a way to keep going and found a new sponsor. People at UCF had their robots rained on, and FIRST did not apologize for that. Did they throw up their hands and give up? no they figure a way to get through it. People are allowed to volunteer, and if you saw it as being so wrong why weren't you up there VOLUNTEERING, and trying to correct it?
Sorry to hear you had such a bad time and all, but part of this competition is to give life experience (both good and bad). I hope you realize this (as I had to) that sometimes everything just doesn't go your way. Some teams don't even get to go to nationals this year, which isn't fair but that is part of this program. Hopefully you will win big in Houston and everything will be great.
