It would be better to follow their rules, though. We wouldn't want to upset FIRST, now would we?

Companies and organizations spend a lot of time on their logo, as a result FIRST does not want us to use their logo in a manner that does not meet their criteria. As FIRST's logo is not in the public domain we use it with their permission, their permission is contingent upon the criteria outlined in their logo usage guidelines (comprehensive guide here)

As Michelle says, the criteria for web sites is published by FIRST. You can see how many points things are worth and make your decision from there. If you have a site that has a very consistent visual identity you may decide that breaking the logo usage guidelines is acceptable. (Not suggesting this by the way)
