If people had this kind of attitude, would science or technology ever advance? If you can do it, then why not do it? You are only as limited as your will and efforts.
About teams winning more than one regional...
Teams choose regionals before they ever start building their robots. They do not choose regionals just to rub it in everyone else's face that their robot is better. A champion team is a team that competes to the best of its ability and performs excellently in the heat of competition.
Should a team throw a regional after they have won a previous regional? NO That's just unsportsman.
I am sorry that you may feel like you were ripped off of a champion win because a team there was better. Instead of complaining about that team, looking towards next year and seeing how you can try doing what they did to make your robot better would be more beneficial. It's good if a team has three regional championships. Three times as many teams get to see what a winning robot is made of and get inspired by that.
And yes...ANYTHING is easier said than done. It is those than stand up and take the challenge who are on their way to being champions.
Good luck and hope your next season is better.
