Got Valentine's day present from wife before leaving for work. Non-contact IR thermometer, two unscuffed pairs of safety glasses for competitions, bag of York peppermint patties. She understands me. |

I'm not worried about talking to the robot, but I am worried about when the robot starts talking back... |

My robot is my significant other. It makes me happy, sometimes it makes me sad, i wish it would lose some weight but it is always there for me. |

Public Service Announcement:
Pressing the spacebar when the robot is enabled isn't nearly as funny the forty-second time. |

Has anybody seen our programmer? He was last sighted walking southbound in the rain, his laptop tucked under his arm, grumbling to himself. |

Taking the time to do it right the first time is faster than rushing through it a third time. |

After each match the pit crew gathers up the parts from the field and finds a new and interesting way to assemble them. |

I think this thread needs a reminder that there's no h in mecanum. ;) |

Sleep?! How am I supposed to do that with the build season done?! There are still practice bots to make! |

Well, we put it in the bag at 11:58 last night. Needless to say we had to pull guys off of it to put it in the bag. I hope we didn't miss somebody and bag him up too. |

How about "Lebron"? Wait, no, you'll be dooming yourselves to failure the last 30 seconds of every match. |

If students and mentors own their role and are proud of it, the team is stronger as a consequence. |

I think a 100% student-run team is as good as a school taught by your peers. |

As my daughter said, you used to shut up your robot and send it away from home. Now you just suffocate it. |

Gracious Professionalism is being embarrassed at an event by an underperforming catstrophe of a robot, yet standing and applauding for every award because you realize that as hard as you worked that season, the other team must have worked even harder to get their achievements. |

Maybe FIRST made these bumper rules so IRI would have something to blow off come July. |

Isn't that what we do here? It seems like no 'controversial' thread is complete until everyone gets a say. |

So let me get this straight. We'll have 6 hours to re-build an entirely new robot that took us 6 weeks originally to make. |

You can't unwind after build season knowing that competition season is just around the corner! ;) |

Expect a lot of noise, unexpected things going wrong, and most of all, tons and tons of fun. |

You know FIRST is on the level of sports when you can give predictions like sports casters do. :) |

Could you post your code? It is hard to debug that which you cannot see... |

Oh, you mean the refs. The only hand signal I've seen the judges use is the hi-five. |

Paper is not so bad. It is really rare for it to crash or run out of battery, for example... |

There is one unbreakable and unwritten law in FIRST, don't make it hard for your alliance partners to play. |

Chairman's Award is not about building the robot. Every team builds a robot. |

The theory is we'd lose a paper list but we haven't lost a student yet. |

Where does one get a henchman? I have a pretty good group of minions, but have always wanted a henchman. |

Did you know that if a G7, G27, G28, and G20 occur in that order at the same time, then the referee will appear to be doing the "YMCA"? :) |

Namaste. Maybe we all one day will spend our energy trying to raise our own level to match that of the competition rather than trying to tear others down. |

1114 is the definition of what a FIRST team should be. For anyone to say otherwise is disgusting to me. |

Load the whole bot up with all 22 motors, put them all into the drive train. Oh yes. |

Team 1114 does not design or build ROBOTS. They build AWESOME. |

You should never, EVER bully, manipulate, or slander another team for the sake of winning. |

There has to be a point where you go "I do not agree, but I can understand why they did it." |

Yeah refs are trained to not have a sense of humor about things like that. |

Practice bots are not regulated by FIRST. Your practice bot could have a flamethrower and a jamming device on it, and they wouldn't care in the slightest.
You just can't compete at a competition with it. :) |

In my opinion, watching someone CAD is about as exciting as watching them sleep. |
