Regionals Question

I'm not sure where to put this, so I decided to put it here. Mods/Admins, if you wish to move this, please do

Anywho, back to my topic. I am just curious, why are there so many teams against us (team #5). Last year I didn't hear as many (if any) anti-team-5 chants.

I'm not complaining though, just wondering. Please post your (team's) reason.

Re: Regionals Question

I can't speak for 818, as I haven't heard anyone complain about your team - heck, all I remember hearing about 5 is that we should have gone to suck up to you so that you would have picked us.

That said...I'd choose jealousy as the main reason. You've won two competitions and did well in Palmetto - share the success, darn it!

lol, a few teams did that actually.

This has just been our year, and I'm proud of what we've done for the ~7 years that the RoboCards have been in FIRST (even though this is my 2nd year). Every team that we beat, lost to, tied w/, etc... has been great.

[On a side note: I think 818 was on our list as possible allies.]

Thanks for your reply also.
