This is horribly true. We get the bad rap no matter what the problem is.

The funniest thing to me this year:

While in pits, I was often told to "fix my code" so that the robot would work. My response to this statement was "fix your wiring." 95% of the time our electrical guy would come out with a loose wire or a bad relay, and everything would work beautifully the second he fixed it (of course until the next "code" problem, that is) .
