Wrong!
It is important to know the rules well when responding to questions here and even more important if you are going to poke fun at others due to their lack of rules knowledge.
The appropriate rule here is <R72-C>
Quote:
<R72> In addition to the items included in the KOP, pneumatic system items specifically permitted on 2010 FRC ROBOTS include the following items. All included items must be “off the shelf” pneumatic devices rated by their manufacturers for pressure of at least 125psi, and used in their original, unaltered condition (except as required for assembly with other components).
.....
C. Solenoid valves. All such valves must have a maximum ⅛” NPT port diameter, and a maximum Cv of 0.32 (if non-KOP valves are used, the team will be required to provide part documentation validating that the valves meet these constraints).

Any valve that meets the Cv, port size and pressure rating spec may be used (unless it violates another rule, I can think of at least one that is possible, but very unlikely)
