Oh woops, I guess I'll go tell 1712 that we had a miserable time in Philadelphia because we lost to 103 in the QFs. My mistake...

Seriously though, this post is a slap in the face of these successful teams. I suggest you actually speak to them, particularly the students. See how they feel. See what effect the programs have on them.
I also suggest you read around these forums for the threads about GP, mentor involvement, and FIRST in general.
I'll also link a post about my feelings on a part of this matter dealing with success and GP.
