Well said Kyle. Though I feel strongly in favor of student run teams, even my own is not that way! I have looked on Chief Delphi since my rookie year in FIRST with awe and respect. They have a reputation for fine bots and should not be questioned because of that! I like to think that FIRST is about all of us coming together, meeting people from around the nation...and even Canada and Brazil! As far as GRT's reputation..I enjoy watching your bots in action, and I enjoyed playing with you last year even more. To be the best is nice, but to know that you make a difference is better IMHO. Chief Delphi gives us this oppotunity to come together online and work together over the competition, and in the off season. Though I have never been to the CDI, I have heard nothing but praise for it, and someday I hope to see it in person. It is now only a short time to the National, we should not be ripping each other apart, but supporting our fellow teams. For if you really look at it, no matter where you are from, we all have come together for the same reason...FIRST. We are truly only one team..the FIRST family.
