Jeremy:
Gracious Professionalism is one of those phrases that only FIRST participants understand. It is not a phrase that can be defined persay; however, it is something that can be seen everyday at competition, through helping others on this website and throughout the season and being far and welcoming competitors at competition. To me the phrase means being the best you can be to EVERYONE, no matter under what circumstance. It is something that is embeded into our bones, being apart of the FIRST family.
As a team, gracious professionalism means helping the veteran teams show the spirit of FIRST everywhere they go. Cheering for all teams and wishing everyone the best every minute of competition. For those rookie teams, it means treating them as if they are a sibling to your own team. Helping them with whatever they need, whenever they need, wherever they need the help.
Being a family FIRST is a place where gracious professionalism is demonstrated and it is something that I wish everyone understood. It is a privlege and something that no one can take away from any FIRST participant!
