Where is the choice for "neither one is important" while i like wearing winning meals as much as the next one and getting complete satisfaction from seeing a beautiful robot. The real payoff for me is the kids faces when they get that spark and realize that they can do something. Winning a regional is a great to substantiate that feeling but in my opinion even if you have the worst robot on the field you can still have a winning season. Some of my best years with team 73 were ones when we didn't ever make the eliminations and it was all about how much the kids learned and how much fun we had.



What good is winning if all the kids get out of it is a metal?
what good is quality if all the kids get is a pretty piece of metal?


but along with this thread. I would rather have a winning robot because i know that if the robot wins the kids did alot of good work.
