Re: Play to win

It's simple.
The mirror test.
Can you look in the mirror and be 100% proud of your efforts?
No rules will ever completely remove these situations.
It's important to note, out of 900+ teams, those who "collude" or "throw matches" are in the distinct minority.
FIRST is about "doing the right thing" even if it's a tougher road to follow. The vast majority of teams understand that.
For those who don't - they still have to look in the mirror.
