Re: COTS: How far should it go?

I'm pretty disappointed y'all went ahead and spun the Chief Delphi Wheel of Absurdity without me, so I'm just going to do my thing:

-Mentors can only be on the drive team if they look like students
-Students should design the robot and force the mentors to build it
-My region sucks but it's better than your unorganized POS
-FIRST HQ sucks except when they do stuff I like
-Samsung Galaxy Nexus is a misunderstood phone
-If your Chairman's submission includes the line "we don't build robots, we build people" you're a bad person
-We're gonna build a wall around FIRST suppliers and make Mexico pay for it
