I think this comment is totally inappropriate. I'd send some negative rep over your way, but I'd rather express my opinion on your comment publicly.

How are freshmen supposed to learn and supposed to be excited about the program when all they hear is "stupid freshmen"? What an insult. Very maliciously amateur if you ask me. How is that supposed to be Inspiring? IMHO that statement lies just on the edge of bullying, which is being targeted by lawmakers and school officials across the country. A comment like that leads me to believe that you and/or your team needs a big shift of values. If you think freshmen are stupid, that is your opinion but I point you to this list of reminder threads before you ever think about making another comment like that again.

Also, I believe you are making a big mistake by only allowing 11th and 12th grade on the FRC build team.
