Re: IRI Thanks and Congrats 2008

First of all, thanks so much to Andy and Chris for inviting us. You and your aweseome team ran this event as well as any regional we've been to. We were saying on the way home that you could easily host a 60 team regional and it would be fantastic (and wouldn't need to cost us all $4000 either!).

Thanks to our partners, 2171, 33 and 70 for everything. We were a really tough alliance that were 4 points from taking out the champs in that third rubber match! I don't think any other team took them to three did they? If so, we only missed by 4 points though... wow, what a blast!

To 67, 330, 987, 68 - you guys deserved it all. We've been partners with you this year and last, and knew that you'd put up an awesome fight. 330 - I loved your comment that you only strap down your battery when you're playing against 910! You broke three of our fans with those awesome arms of yours but it didn't affect anything and was a riot going bumper-to-bumper with you, trying to stop your awesome drivers and bot from racking up the points. We felt like, "if we couldn't win, at least our friends did!"

Finally, to the judges, thanks for the "COOLEST" award the Foley Freeze has ever received! Wow! My secretary asked me this morning if it came with a remote! And as far as, "The team the judges would most like to take home with them"... well, "When's dinner!!"

Thanks again for the most fun event of the year!

Team 910 - The Foley Freeze
