Re: You Cannot Graciously Accept
If picked, students on team 45 have been ordered to not say "graciously accept" for a couple of years. They can accept in any creative way, saying whatever they want, as long as it represents the team well and does not insult the other teams.
In St. Louis, team 1444 picked us, and Kyle Love responded with something like this:
"Hoooo yea! Team 45 would love to 'Shake n Bake' with team 1444" (or something like that)
(we watched the Ricky Bobby movie on the ride over to St. Louis, so "Shake n Bake" was the saying of the weekend)
At the Boilermaker Regional, team 1501 picked us, and Nick Boyce was a little more toned down:
"Team 45 would absolutely LOVE to be partnered with team 1501 - we accept"
I am still waiting to see a poem or a song sung by an accepting student. That would be cool.
