Re: Delphi Bankruptcy

On the bright side, nobody's dead in the water yet.

And even if Delphi were to cut funding to its teams, it's still not the end of the world. They happen to sponsor some darn good teams in FIRST, who I'm willing to bet are capable of getting on the grind and raising the money they need. (Granted, it might be awkward to start calling ChiefDelphi something else, but stranger things have happened.)

If all else fails, of course, the teams can always move to Kansas.
