My take is this:
Any team that does well is going to attract attention, good and bad (this is true for anything in life).
The good news is that in FIRST, the good attention out weighs the bad 9 times out of 10. Even my team managed to get a little flack this year (that silly match at utc that we 'staged'). Soon, everyone realized how absurd it all was and that was the end of it.
Moral: Jackets and tropheys are amazingly pointless in the big picture. Don't focus on them. Treat your self and others with dignity and respect and no one has anything to complain about.
