This is *after* our alliance narrowly lost the first match of the finals, so we were one match away from losing.
Not trying to make any real point, just bringing up a story that this thread reminded me of. It's the kind of thing that makes FIRST so much more than other competitions.

Yes, last year I was on 181, the loser of that set of 3 matches. Buzz was very, very Graciously Professional by giving up their time-out. I believe that Buzz is a very good team, both physically (their robot), and GPly. After the second match yesterday, their whole drive team came up to us (Myself and the rest of the drive team,) shook our hands and thanked us for playing. I am always really impressed by Buzz.
