That section was not referring to your post, that section was referring to FIRST in general and actions I've witnessed at competitions. I was simply stating all the crap they have had to put up with this year in addition to that joke. Please refrain from calling legitimate facts "just wrong". It happened.

I'm sorry for standing up for a team who would receive too much flack if they were to defend themselves. I'm assuming being from NH that you have not personally talked to them about this subject (if I am wrong then I apologize) but it doesn't exactly feel good to know that almost no one wants you to win. It's hurtful when people cheer for 6 weeks of your hard work being deemed illegal. Or for your robot being taken out of commission on the bump as Karibou said. Perhaps not all noise is cheering, but there are cases where it is pretty obvious what people are yelling about.
