: After talking to a friend on team 209 this year, the thought was the same. He told me that they made sure to build their bot this year like they would have had the bots of '99 running full speed at them. Built it to take a hit and keep on driving.

I don't really want to get into the "defensive/offensive" conversation, because most of what I've wanted to say has been said.....but just to comment.....209 is an AWESOME team...I had never heard of them before UTC '00 ('cause theyre on the quiet side)...but just hearing the stories from our drivers about how they basically dismantled their machine for us & 131, and didn't care to play "as long as we did our best"...I, as well as the rest of #237, have the upmost respect for them.
