Re: Gracious Professionalism
During Nationals last year, our team was plagued by faulty gearboxes that kept popping their drive chains every time they shifted. Despite heroic efforts by our pit crew, we couldn't find the problem. Thank goodness we were next door to M.O.E! Despite being in competition against us, they spared to expense to help us fix our issue. After a temporary fix involving threaded rod and lots of patience, our transmissions lasted through the off-season until finally giving their last earlier this year.
I reiterated this story to a friend who played football a while ago. He couldn't understand why a team would actually give some of their resources and members to another team. I told him that it was all in the spirit of GP, and that's what made FIRST so spectacular.
