Re: The Growing Gap in FIRST & on CD, and Our Responsibility to Fix It
I think its both a problem with FIRST and with its teams. FIRST, I think, depends heavily on FRC teams to keep other teams going, and if they don't they should.
The best resource for teams is other teams. You see some teams bragging about their team raising $50,000 for one season (this has happened several times at competitions during discussions), but they do little or no out reach to other FRC teams.
Im not trying to point the finger by any means, and I have seen teams effectively 'rescue' other team from going under. I do think though its easier for teams to interact and help each other then it is to try to change the way FIRST approaches the way they run the program.
