*postmatch*
Coach: "What the... We got a red card??? How does..."

Driver: "Hey, HP. Add something to the checklist about 'Make sure Coach is wearing non-tinted safety glasses'. We get another card, nobody gonna pick us."

Most teams practice robot driving skills. These guys are doing the "don't let the coach touch the controls" drill.

Coach: Win on three!

Coach: Just like I taught you. We don't win, we just do our best and inevitably lose.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #583

Trey: OK, I've got the six driver stations and our pits all on the floo network. Everybody grab a handful of powder, and remember to speak clearly! If you don't have dark glasses, close your eyes, 'cause it's kind of bright.
Driver: Eh, you do know that the driver stations are just a couple dozen yards over there, don't you? And even if they are green and magical, the safety inspectors and judges are likely to DQ us for flames in the pits and on the field.

[Edit-and-not entry]M1kronaut, I don't think it's been established if open tags continue to the next post. Your post down two could be in violation of the Heidi Foster Rule:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #583

Team 178 coach (out of view): "Miraculously, our robot is working perfectly. Since you all don't have anything to do at the moment, why not have a four-way staring contest? Whoever wins gets bragging rights."
*leaves the gym*

Later, in the middle of the contest...

Girl on far right (thinking): "Wait a minute... tinted goggles... he's cheating. I'll put a stop to this."
*holds her left fist out, while putting the right behind her back*

Blonde Guy: "What are you doing?"
*pause*
"You WERE joking about having laser powers, right?"
*another pause*
"Okay, now you're starting to worry me."
*yet another pause*
"Everyone, stop her before she blows this place to bits!"

*everyone puts their fists forward, blocking hers*

Girl on far right: "Wrong fist, suckers! Did you really think I'd have just a normal bracelet?"
*punches out with her right fist, shooting an extremely powerful laser, and causing a massive explosion that destroys everything in the room.

*the coach walks back into the gym to find that there is a pile of rubble in its place*

Coach (to him/herself): "What the heck happened here!?!? All this for bragging rights?"

The moral of the story is also the title of my new campaign: BAN LASER BRACELETS FROM ROBOTICS MATCHES!

[/super long entry]

[NPOE]But you have to give me credit for taking the time to right all that.[/NPOE]
