Just remind them that FIRST is about much more than destruction. The value of everything you get out of FIRST makes up for tearing apart someone's robot. And, I always like to add in, it's not like we're "playing nice," there's definitely defense and ramming and pushing. It's not all innocent offense. ~__^
