When a highschool sports team watches their world finals (ie. teams composed of the best possible members and trained to perform), does it serve as a detriment or an inspiration? I'm inclined to believe that it reminds us that there is always room for improvement and reason for the passion and dedication needed to reach the top.
It's also worth mentioning that an olympic team might not be too far beyond some of the current best FRC teams in terms of performance.
