Take of it what you will. This is how I feel, I am curious if others share my sentiment.

I'm going to take the original question and ignore all the other posts. I believe a corporate sponsor would love to see something he/she is supporting as fun and worthy. Say I was a big sponsor, Ryan Co., and Team Fusion asked me to support them and go to competition with them. At competition, all Team Fusion did was sit and watch a match, no cheering, no excitement, no dancing, it is just about the robot, Chairmans, 3D Max, and website. I would have to ask myself, "Why am I paying for something that these students don't enjoy?" I would probably not support the team again.
Now on the contrary. I support Team Fusion; Fusion brings me to competition; I see the kids having fun and I see everything that they do. I would most likely support them next year, and possibly get more involved.
Keep in mind one of the awards given, the Spirit Award.
