As a frustrated member of team 93, I must say this just sucks. Im not talking about the plays or the calls that were made or not made. Im talking about the feeling of having such an awesome robot and seeing the national championship within reach and fallign short. In the heat of the competition, I was furious. How could 469 do this? I wanted to point fingers and place blame. Well, I've cooled down since then, and so has most of our team. I realise that its all in the past and we can't change it. Whether or not 469 was trying to disable us or not we'll never know. What I know is that they were gracious professionals in semifinals match 1.2. They could have ripped their arm down and out of our robot and tipped our bot over. But, in the spirit of FIRST, they made sure we were on all fours before retreating. I thank them for that. They beat us and moved on and took second place. Way to go. Hopefully, no one holds any grudges and next year we'll have all cooled down. Seeing how it's my last year in FIRST, good luck next year team 93, and all other teams as well.
