Re: Congratulations teams 111, 67, 971

Congratulations to one of the most dominant alliances of all time. Between HOT's unprecedented 5 event wins, Wildstang's undefeated championship run and 971's ridiculous outcome changing dumps on Einstein, this alliance has rewritten the record book and raised the bar for all of FIRST.

At this point now, it's fairly conclusive that at the least, the 2009 HOTBot is one of the top 5 robots of all time. If we're looking at just final results, then without a doubt this is the greatest season of all time!

What makes this alliance even more special, is the amazing people who were a part of it. Wildstang and HOT are two of the classiest teams in FIRST, and even though I don't know 971 personally, the praise I've heard heaped upon them makes me think the same of them.

Congratulations again.
