There's a video around here somewhere of team 93 getting their giant ball dump capped. It wasn't illegal, and I didn't hear anybody say it wasn't graciously professional. Defense is part of the game.
In 2001 instead of staring at the field at the game I turned around and watched the people watch the field. All I could see was a mass of people from all corners of the world, eyes lit up, gears turning in their heads. That, to me, is FIRST in action. - Jessica Boucher [more]
