What's not okay is teams making picks for teams in exchange for superior advantages, trading picks for advantages, etc.

This is a competition. Its one team vs the rest. It's not two teams helping each other other constantly vs the rest. It's not fair for any other team in the competition that you guys are doing this.
Sure, but this is FIRST we're talking about. Where is Gracious Professionalism? The entire concept of the FIRST programs is to engrain the fact that you can compete without having to beat down other teams. Even if it's a competition with teams against each other, so is FRC. Gracious Professionalism still should apply.
