Re: pic: 1396 One-Day Robot
I have been very fortunate to have been told this story but this is the first time I've seen or read this thread. I'm not sure when the tears started clouding my vision while reading..probably one of Mark McLeod's posts but Rich Wong and Andy Grady didn't help.

This thread should surface like this before every new season. It is motivating and inspiring. And jawdropping.

doesnt that make you wonder... if at a basketball game the best player on the team broke his leg, and the opposing team had magic powers and were able to heal him...

would they?

Naw, basketball isn't nearly as great a sport as FRC. They play for the money. We play for honor, dignity, and respect.

I heard this story when it happened. I have used it repeatedly as an example of what FIRST is really all about.

Truly inspiring!
