It seems like it was only yesterday...

Hey Kid! Get off my lawn!!!

I was about to correct you on that.
Also we still have that robot in storage. I wish we had the control system to run it.
Through the miracle of CD here is a picture of the claw you mentioned.

We used derivatives of that design through about 2005.

Wow. That picture made my heart start racing. I remember seeing that middle goal fill up SO fast when you guys were on the field. I'd blink and there was no more room to score. That was a fearsome robot.

Remember the Nationals that year with the Losers Bracket from Hell? We were knocked out early, but then about 10 amazing teams all dumped in there at the same level. I think you guys were in there, and Wildstang, and Beatty, and TechnoKats, ... That was a bracket for the Ages.
