CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #307

[Taylor]

My two favorite teams are Delphi E.L.I.T.E. and the Cleveland Indians.

D'oh!

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Oops, Travis has another victim for the kid eating robot. I hear another sequel coming, "Little Shop of Horrors, Ohio Style".

[Katie_UPS]

This just in: Robotics enthusiasts gather to consult the wise orange shirt kid. Contrary to popular belief, he is not actually from Chief Delphi.

<npoe> I know they are no longer around, but when I think "Orange robotics team", I think Chief Delphi. </npoe>

[BrendanB]

Kid on robot: "They spelled right drive, 'Rite driv'!"
Travis (puzzled, tilting head, and unsure): "No, that is how you spell it?????"

[delsaner]

Kid on bot: Travis, why is that board made of wood?
Travis: Well, we did not have enough money to buy metal.
Kid: Why?
Travis: Well... because we did not do enough fund-raising.
Kid: Why?
Travis: *sigh* Because the economy is terrible this year.
Kid: Why?
Travis: .....I dont know. I do not know why the economy is bad.
Kid: Why?
Travis: Because I did not take any economy classes.
Kid: Why?
Travis: Because I did not have any interest in economics!
Kid: Why?
Travis: *repeatedly bangs head on workbench*

[Josh Fox]

Those robot builders just keep getting younger and younger these days...

[Spiffizzle]

Delphi ELITE's newest recruits.

Their defense: They're old enough to be in FRC! I swear! (Just ask the Chinese gymnastics team!)

[Ryan Simpson]

Shortly after this picture was taken, a little boy learned to count in base 9.

[Karibou]

"So if I go to the bathroom here, pretty sparkly smoke will come out? Cool!"

[kramarczyk]

Travis during his recruiting speech: Look, if you want to be an athlete on a successful Cleveland team your only real choice is to be a math-lete.

[Billfred]

Time for some Monday morning judging!

Ralphie as Adult: [narrating] Button? Button? What's a button? With unconscious will my voice squeaked out 'button'.
Travis: Okay, get him out of here.
Ralphie as Adult: [narrating] A button? Oh no, what was I doing? Wake up, Stupid! Wake up!
Ralphie: [Ralphie is shoved off the robot, but he stops himself and climbs back up] No! No! I want an Official Delphi E.L.I.T.E Forty Eight 2010 Model Robot!
Travis: You'll shoot your eye out, kid.
