Woah ... calm down Dave. I didn't see any specific accusations. And I would be willing to bet that, out of almost 1000 active teams, there are at least a small number who do fit this description. In fact I personally know one alumnus of a team who told me that the students don't touch the robot until it is time to drive. My personal preference is that a large percentage of students have significant hands-on robot design/build time, but I'm sure the kids on that team (especially judging from my contact) are also very inspired about futures in engineering and technology ... which is what FIRST is all about.
