Go to Post Overall, I thought FIRST did a great job with the rules this year - very simple and very clear for the most part. However, something is always going to fall through the cracks (and I don't mean that in a bad way - people need to know that it's practically impossible to do something perfectly). - Chris Hibner [more]

I love the idea of Cutting the Net. It adds a lot to FRC trying to get mainstream attention by emulating popular traditions, but at the same time, it's a really nice reward for the teams who A) put in the extra effort to represent FIRST (as the Chairman's Award winners), or B) designed and built a truly amazing machine worthy of recognition. It's going to make a great trophy for teams who earn them, as this will likely never be done ever again (unless FIRST ends up liking the idea and adding this to future games).

I'm honestly going to be a bit jealous if my team can't earn a net. It's an amazingly cool thing to be able to do.

True. Nothing is a given.

That would be a tremendous honor! I'd love to see 1126 and 340 together on the field again, doing something that may never be done in FIRST again. A fitting continuation to out teams' long-lasting friendship Here's to hoping we get the honor!

That would be awesome! This is definitely a cool tradition, and definitely something worth accomplishing. Especially becasue the Drive Team gets to cut the net!

Of course, Justin, the top net of FLR will be for us

I do wonder, however, what does the alliance that wins Einstein get? Divisional net AND Einstein net? or are they not doing that at CMP?

I'm guessing that at CMP, since the CA team usually gets to sit on stage to watch Einstein, they'll be able to cut the top net once the alliance champions are crowned.

Re: Team Update 2/28/12

I can't wait to see FLR finals for this, but even more to see the Divisional Champions at Worlds holding their nets upon entering Einstein. Its going to be amazing.
