Electricians are odd. This is how they show you they want Victors.

It just so happened to be human player try outs day...

If it was a gray Jag, that backing would be SO full of holes, slits, and projectiles!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403

Jaguars always get the dirty jobs - driving motors either forwards or backwards endlessly around a small playing field. It's a hot and thankless task. Ultimately someone always rains down metal filings and then the Jaguar dies in a flurry of sparks. This little Jaguar managed to escape the electrical board and was caught here in the act of scaling the wall on the way to total freedom.

I wonder how fast that Jaguar had to run to wedge itself into the backboard?

Driver: Did the shooter break?

Coach: No, why?

Driver: We seemed to have lodged a jag into the backboard

Coach: ...I blame the programmers.

We tried to isolate the problem with our robot, removing one piece at a time until the problem went away... 'nuff said.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403

The jaguars are truly rebellious. They sometimes just jump off the robot.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #403

The stealthy and speedy Jaguar is among the more dangerous control system components in the Serengeti. It lies in wait for unsuspecting robotics teams to pounce upon and then blows up in their faces.

rawr!

NPOE: I would have reposted this, but too many people already put up the same idea:

Today's FRC drive trains are just too powerful. Witness the centrifugal force that was just created.

Does this fall under <G-10> - I can't find a definition for "grasp, grapple, or attach"?
Quick! Somebody find a reasonably astute observer!

Jane: This caption contest is giving me a headache.

Backboard: Tell me about it. At least you don't have a Jag stuck on you who thinks it's a basketball.

Jag: And the crowd roars, "Cut the nets! Cut the nets!"
