Re: Effect of Coopertition Points
I think a part of this discussion is that not everyone cares about recognizing FRC as a real sport. I also think that there are those who want to celebrate the "social engineering experiment." The bridge (and how it is used) on the field and in discussions off the field, shows that there is a lot of work for the participants to do in order to balance it.
That doesn't make the situation black and white. It doesn't make it right or wrong. It provides opportunities for members of FRC to implement healthy discussions regarding strengthening the program and its positive impact.
