And this is why I stopped posting on CD, over-reaction to specific sentences and not whole ideas.

Yes, resources are essential, as are mentors. And no, I am not saying school sports and FRC are mutually exclusive. My point was: what are you doing to nurture the talent base at a younger age? Having been part of a team that won multiple regionals at PCH, a team that won a National Creativity Award, I can tell you that money, time and mentors can only go so far. I feel you need many things, but nurturing future team members is the difference maker, because that's what we didn't have when we didn't do well at the national level.

With that, back to CD retirement.
