What can make a FIRST team a "renowned" FIRST team

[artdutra04]

Although there are different ways in which a team can become renowned within the FIRST community, all everything comes down to is recognition. If your team attends a competition, is your team number one known to all? If you had to blindly choose a Fantasy FIRST league before kickoff, who would you choose? (Assuming you only went by Champions, E.I., and Chairman's awards?)

What if there was a seperate league for just the other awards, such as Team Spirit, Imagery, Website. etc? Which team's would you choose based off of these awards? Which rookie or sophomore teams stand out in your memory? Or how about people? What team numbers can you remember based off of the people from that team?

What teams come to mind if you mention transmission, drivetrain, Lexan, PVC, arm/elevator, operator interface? Which teams come to mind if you mention amazing drive team or coaching?

What about the FIRST Vex Challenge or the FIRST LEGO League? A "renowned FIRST" team does not only mean FRC; FIRST also includes FVC and FLL. Which FVC teams stand out in your memory, for either their robot or for their spirit? How about FLL? Are there any FLL teams in your area that are always at the top of their game?

A renowned team would be any team which would consistently come to mind for any of these questions, year after year. A renowned team would be one which other teams come to for advice, help, and inspiration. A renowned team inspires rookies to say "I want to be like that team!".
