Re: 2009 Florida Regional

I'd like to thank all the Volunteers, refs, judges and announcers. It was a great smooth running venue, and the nicest regional I've been to. Field never gave us trouble in our matches. Everything was right on time. Reffing was accurate. Field turnover was quick and not stressfull, the lead field guy was stern but nice. The announcing was really good by all of them.

Thanks to SPAM for the scouting help, it definitely revealed some things. I'm sorry we didn't get to run that alliance, it might have worked but we needed a stronger scorer than us. I really enjoyed our scouting meeting, you guys are very organized. Congrats to James for the WFA, he's the MAN!

1649.. WOW. I looked at your bot on Thursday morning and told some people in your pit you guys were going to do really well. It reminded us of 1625, and then when you were playing 180 in that repeat (last match of the day) that's when I was sold. You guys totaly rocked.

233.. As usual, we just love you guys. I love working with Andy and Gabe and Kit etc. The laid back confidence and focus on strategy is what works in the heat of it all. You're drivers were solid, confident and professional.

79.. Love you guys too. Amazing machine and excellent drivers. I'm still wondering how we beat you. Not to mention knocking off 103 and 25 was unbelieveable

744.. Beautiful machine, we had you and 79 as our top picks and statistical top scorers at the regional. Great job and Great games!

1251.. Thanks for letting us win for once.. That was a great strategy you pulled on us in the second match. Excellent driving, plus you scored a bunch on us. There was no way to win that. Again I still don't know how we did it in the 3rd. I can't wait to see some video.

1345.. Your students are very inspiring hard workers. I'm proud of you guys. I'm sorry we couldn't hook up in the end, we needed a strong defender but it was awesome playing you guys. That was a scary alliance with 238 and 501. I loved the simultaneuos score, can't wait to see that video either.

I'm extremely proud of my team and the hard work they all put in this year. Thank you to all of you. Also Sean, my driver is a senior and I had the pleasure of working with him 4 years. A very talented great young man. I can't get his parents to hold him back another year so now we need a new driver.

Thanks to everyone I didn't mention, but you know I love you!
