Hey!
I gotta say, this being my first year doing this, it's the most fun I've had in a long time. And the upset thing, maybe a little, but more dissapointed. I know that I'm dissapointed for not making the finals, but hey, I'm just happy that we did as good as we did

And to all the teams going to the West Michigan thing, I'll see ya there!

: just wanted to say to all rookie teams, particurlarly #308 who seemed a little upset about the outcome at the nationals. don't worry about it. The what-ifs kill everyone and it's exactly what the people who don't understand the purpose of FIRST care about so don't worry, cause in just two years-i've seen and plenty. Broken trantorques, out-of-spec pieces, tipovers, rules violations. but it takes a little luck. But remember luck comes when preparation meets oppurtunity. so just hang on and remember that you all REALLY are winners!
