Maybe in one year they were never the most 'winningest' robot.. but i think 126 Gael Force has a strong past for building competitive robots that are worth recognizing.. I will always be proud to be a part of their team.. and priviledged to contribute to their track record for 3 years as driver..

And I also think Delphi is another team that always builds a quality robot year after year..

But mainly-- I would say that Assabet comes out with one of the best, toughest, and most competitive robots every time.. I don't know that they have as many awards as the others.. but it's not as much medals that matter as quality of robot.. I still remember the scene from the '99 River Rage when Lebanon lifted the puck and 157 never fell off.. who needs a trophy when your robot can do that?! Every year, they are one of the most highly competitive teams that may often be overlooked because they don't bask in the glory of gold time and time again.. but hey.. they are one good team who would definitely deserve it..

And I read Mike Martus' post as well.. bragging causes negative.. but I think that if we respect that this are solely individual opinions we can appreciate the work of all teams..
