Of course we all want FIRST to be perfect. But they are human, not robots.
Keep in mind that there have been major arguments every year.
In 2002 there was the
The tether issue
In 2003 there was
"Collusion"
In 2004 there was
"Collaboration"
The moral: FIRST will always have issues. Sometimes there will be arguments. However, as the students and mentors of FIRST, it is our job to keep this program that has touched so many lives going. I think we are just experiencing the "annual argument" and hopefully it will pass soon.
