Unhappy Alot of Teams Don't Care

They think FIRST is about the robot and the competition. They just don't get it. Some teams don't get into the whole spirit of FIRST. They bring that "sports" mentality to the compettions. "My robots's better than yours and your team stinks,ect". Just basically being really nasty jerks. I'm not gonna name any names but they know who they are.
FIRST is so much more than competition. I think the best part is the cross team comraderie. You don't see that anywhere else and if FIRST loses that because they're getting too big then maybe they don't need to get big.
