I feel you are unfairly portraying the team you are talking about. Every interaction I've EVER had with said team has been highly positive. I feel they are a prime example of what FIRST should be all about.

Think about the phrase "One team, two bots"
Now re-evaluate that phrase to mean "Two teams, 1/2 the budget" and ask yourself what would have happened to your team, without their support.

They ARE one of the best teams in FIRST. They DO deserve to go to the championship. They DO deserve the chairman's award. They DEFINITELY deserved to attend nationals this year, and made a very positive showing in their division (seeded top 20 I believe).

What you are saying about them is just sort of slander. You've come right out on this public forum, and said "I don't think they deserved to attend nationals".
How graciously proffesional of you.
