Re: This Is Appalling Behavior At A FIRST Event

There should be no teams yelling "robot".

This is a best practice that should be implemented on every team:

We had the green shirts talk about this with every team at our local regional this year. It works.

Really not trying to derail your thread. But I do think the issues are related and one can help with the other. The mentality and "blindness" that comes with transporting the robot (and yelling "ROBOT") is ingrained in the culture of FRC. It needs to change.
