[Bennett548]

Tyler, Karthik and Libby: Thanks for doing this.

It is a hard subject to discuss with new members of our team, and this video presents it in a concise way that will really help start that discussion.

Big respect to Karthik for being so fair and graciously professional when it obviously still hurts. I probably couldn't have kept it together like that.

The only correction I would give is that 548 voluntarily declined the invitation to the World Championship in 2013. Even if we had felt like we should have gone (we didn't), it would have been hard to pay the travel costs after losing some sponsors going from the 2012 to 2013 season. I don't want people thinking there were persons within the FIRST organization that rescinded the offer. From everything I saw, FIRST and FiM were and are totally supportive of our team and never treated us with any stigma, officially or otherwise.
