: Any other suggestions?

: Joe J.

From what I've seen in the FIRST programs, TBD is the most popular name used by FIRST teams.

Here at ComBBAT central there are some things we take very seriously. We like to give each year's students the opportunity to put their stamp on the team by naming the robot. It usually has the personality of that years team or robot.

Year 1: Christine (robot attacked 3 people)
Year 2: Tippy (Named after a cat who hated people)
Year 3: ThuuunkMaster (I'm not sure why, weird kids)

This year .... "THAT"

We thought Dean's publicity generating name "IT" was a stroke of genious. We hope "THAT" will do just as well, both with publicity and world changing effect. I've already quoted several famous people and their thoughts about "THAT" in a previous post. Already, you see, "THAT" is big deal and we are getting even more feedback...

""THAT" was a great play" John Madden
"Did you see "THAT"?" Bob Costas
"I have no problem with "THAT"" G. W. Bush
"THAT" is not what I said" W. J. Clinton
"THAT's" what's happening" Dan Rather
"THAT's a big meatball" Fat guy in alka selzer commercial

Hope you have as much fun as we do with "THAT". Now if we can only get all of "THAT working.
