John,

Please just give it a rest. You have no reason, nor basis to rip upon a fellow team like this, and it is offensive to why we are all in FIRST to begin with! Chief Delphi has made some magnificent bots year after year, and I am in awe for each of their creations. Even more than that, I look at the students from Pontiac Central, and I am amazed. They have a passion, a drive, that is incredible. Team 47 goes out of their way to help and support all of us in FIRST, and you have no right to tear them down. We are one team...a FIRST team. If you cannot see that, then I honestly can say I pity you. Everyone is entitiled to his/her own opinions, but that was nothing but pure slander. Do not accuse when you cannot back up your statements, and if you feel the need to carry this disscussion further, come to pit 69 and look me up in the Nationals. I will show you what FIRST is. From the faces of the team on little to no funding, cheering for a bot that barely runs...to the team like Delphi, who spends time helping them repair that bot when something is wrong. The teams that cheer in the stands, becasue their own bot is not there, but because there is a team with 5 students, (all on the field), is all they could bring...and everyone should have a cheering squad. If that is not FIRST to you, fine. But do not rip into my fellow teams, and simply keep that opinion to yourself.
