Umm... yeah, that won't be a problem will it simon? since you WONT be there. Which means I get to fix your jinxed side of the robot; along with mine! And yes, the washers are stupid!

You're correct in saying that MOE and SPARKY took a risk in going after all three goals right off the buzzer.

As a member of the pit crew, we saw quickly at VCU that MOE was coming off the field pretty beaten-up. Now I don't have a problem with that... As long as the damage comes in the spirit of the game. If we grab onto all of the goals, and a team -while trying to take one away- happens to mangle an arm, that's OK with me, and the rest of the team. I just hope that in all of our matches that a team doesn't decide to mangle the robot for the heck-of-it. That is not in the spirit of FIRST, even though this years game is inherantly more violent than previous years.

see you at nationals!!!

ps- thank god for our abile pit crew and swanky pit.
