Billfred has entirely summed up our team's motto. Everyone wants to have enough money to go to 4 regionals, Atlanta and have a fancy catered banquet, a practice robot and 2 t-shirts per day but when it comes down to it, you just have to work your posteriors off and move that money around to the most important places. (I haven't read the rest of this thread and I have no idea whether this contributes, but this quote is basically our team motto)
