Ungracious and unprofessional...

[Adam Y.]

There was some iffy behavior on this topic at the SBPLI Regional. And I use the word "iffy" loosely because I don't really see it as a problem, although some might.

I reall don't remeber seeing anything there that was at all iffy. Can you elaberate. In fact it was actually quite nice with all the people walking up to us and helping fix our robot.

Gracious Professionalism is like being cool. You don't know reall know until you are pointed out for being so. And if say you are cool, you arn't. If someone says you arn't cool, then they arn't cool. It's like that. GP is karma, it's something that dosn't need to be recognized, but is just known by others and yourself. Don't let it get to your head.

I think we need that little metaphor for people to think about.

I was really dissapointed this year with the way the regional we went to went. Our team was quite intentionally rammed into repeatedly and then intentionally tipped over during a semi-final match. Then the team who did it cheered. The drive team was cheering at the fact that they tipped us over. It bothered me because in the four years I've been involved with FIRST, I never thought I would ever see something that nasty happen by any team.
