Though its probably been somewhat aided by the fact that every single time, they've been paired with 1114.

(The events i'm referring to are 2007 Waterloo, 2007 GTR, 2007 IRI, 2007 CMP, 2008 Waterloo, 2008 GTR.)

The key part in your statement is being with 1114.
The Cheesy Poofs havent always been with the more dominant partner. In fact, they WERE the dominant partner.
We would know as we were their teammates in 2001 and 2002 at SVR when we won gold.
Nobody's record as of this point is more impressive than the Poofs, IMO. Its not to say that 71, 111, 217,330 and others that started way back aren't just as good. But their track record stands out and speaks for itself, considering the no. of regionals they've been to. Furthermore, there are so many teams gunning for teams like them and 25. To continue to win regionals is outright impressive.
Cory made a good point that anyone at CMP can be beat. How the heck have they not won at CMP yet?
Its all about the alliances. No ONE robot wins. Its the strength of an alliance. On paper, alliances may look strong. However, the end match results dont always reflect that. No disrespect to any particular team. Just pointing out and reiterating the fact that history has shown that any good alliance can win.
We've had 2 regionals this year where an 8th seed won. 2007 CMP showed that any seed, including the 8th seed can win.
Why hasn't Tiger Woods won every single major since 1999 where he was clearly the best golfer in the world EVERY year since then?
That's because "shift" happens.

My favorite is still 1114................................


































with us as their 3rd alliance partner.

Haha, I'm just hoping we get picked by someone who knows how to have fun. That's the most important part to me right now.

Based on your robot design that should have been copyright protected or paid royalties for with all of the similar designs, how about....."Wheels in the sky keep on turning."
