Re: "We Are the Champions" and GP?

I understand where you are coming from with thinking that this song might not be in line with FIRST's credo.

But here's my spin on it (and this is just my own thoughts)--
Whenever I hear that song played, I don't think about there being a distinct winner/loser. Rather, I think about how hard each and every team has worked to get where they've gotten. I see the song as more of an ode to all the teams--we are all champions because we all work hard. Sure, they play the song at the end of the competition, but why can't it be a song for everyone to enjoy equally?

Look at all that everyone has done in the FIRST program--we are ALL champions.
