Re: rookie teams for alliance partner

My own little personal anecdote - last year in Sacramento our pit was next to that of a (rookie, I think?) team called the Bad News Bears (don't remember the number)
They had not known that there was a shipping deadline and had literally nothing but a bunch of parts and some plywood the first day.
~scroll forward a day~
After losing our last two matches of the day (or something like that) and dropping out of our coveted top 8 position, we ended up being picked by none other than the 3rd place Bad News Bears...

Never underestimate any team, not even the rookies
