Here's how I remember the conversation.

Ken: "The winning alliance at nationals will consist of a finger and a thumb."
Chris: "huh?"
Ken: "There will be one offensive robot (the finger), and one strong defensive robot (the thumb) that will keep the other team from scoring."
Chris: "Sounds reasonable."
Paul: "No way. A finger and a thumb could never beat two great offensive machines."
Ken: "I'm just saying, the alliance that wins the championship will consist of a good finger, and a good thumb."
Paul: "Okay, you're on!"

Then I remember something about singing karaoke in Atlanta. What song did you choose, Paul?
