Making a robotics class-please help

I will be holding an after school activity for my team once every two weeks. In it, I will discuss games of the past in an effort to have the new people (and the old) grow accustomed to the world of FISRT so that by the time build season begins, any and all members will be far more educated about robotics and how it works with FIRST.

This is a first for my team; normally, the design process lasts a few days, then the build process is very segmented and unplanned. I hope to have all new members if not immersed in the world of robotics/FIRST by kickoff, at least have their feet kind of wet.

Anyway, what I am asking from the Chief Delphi community is tri-fold:

1. Does anyone know where I could find (or just send me) video files of the game animations from 2003-2008 (I have last years myself)?

2. I know how the games worked (in essence, and can figure out the necessities myself) but the full blown manuals (or at least detailed robot/game rules) would be great for 2003-2008 (again, I have last years myself). Please send me a link for their download or PM with a file, etc.

3. Finally, this goes out more to the teams as opposed to people. Pictures of national champions from 2003-2009 or robots that were known to be particularly legendary even if they did not win full championships. Please do not send me nothing but one teams photos year after year simply because they have a good reputation in general; send me photos of a robot that had a good reputation in a particular year. Additionally, I do not know as much FIRST lore as many of the people on this forum; please include a description of why a robot would be legendary (148's 2008 drive train, 67's 2003 manipulator) along with pictures and video footage if possible.

Thank you all so much! With your help, I hope to make my senior year on the team a most fruitful one and hopefully will make us the best team we can be and have something good to leave behind for my team when I'm gone.
