The only people who realize the importance of scouting are the people who utilize its information. (a.k.a. the drive team.) I also want to add in parents and mentors, the good ones are appreciated often, (through WF's) but the ones that do the little things seem to go unnoticed.
I probably have a bit of programming bias from having to be the only programmer on two FTC teams

On 1714, scouting was a pretty big deal. And if I'm with these 2791 guys for long it'll get that way
