They did no such thing. Their reputation is among the best in FIRST.
The Thunderchickens have a trailer in which they have transported machine tools to several FRC events, at which they have allowed other teams to use them. This generous and gracious act got them in trouble during Week 1 last season, due to concerns about venue restrictions and potential liability. Nothing dangerous actually happened, but the incident resulted in a more clearly stated FIRST policy regarding power tools. You can find that policy in the 2008 FRC Manual, Sections 3.9.13 and 3.9.14.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
