I hate that every year people turn this competition into whining rather than winning. |

So, if you feel your team is at a disadvantage, or the playing field isn't level.... Do something about it. |

But when it comes down to it, the best teams usually end up winning regardless. |

Gracious Professionalism is a compass, not a set of calipers. It should be used to guide what you do rather than to measure it. |

I don't see why this is an issue. Robots are immune to the N1H1 virus. |

Just remember that you can get just as much inspiration from making a simple system's details work really well as you can from just making a complex system work... |

When you're in a field as deep as the Championship go offensive or go home. It's that simple. |

In the end, people can throw all the stories at me they want, but I'm never going to let mere stories convince me physics is wrong. |

Obama's got to stop saying all of these FIRST like statements and should just give us money and show up at Championship. |

Wow, almost seems unfair to have that many nice people in one place. Isn't it possible to overload on cool? |

In other words, don't worry about the results but strive for excellence in the way you live your life and everything you do. |

The more women we have as 'rock stars' in FIRST, the more girls we'll see celebrating math and science and the doors they can open. |

If you never takes steps to solve problems you cannot just complain that they exist. |

When there appears to be something stupid wrong with a game (HPs outscoring robots, unreliable loading, autonomous that accomplishes nothing) I shouldn't complain about it. I should see it as a challenge to exploit! |

If you have an opinion on something, it often says more about you than it does that thing. |

Set your goals as high as your team thinks they can achieve (drafted, drafting, win awards, regional champs, world champs, etc) and go for them. Let the chips fall and have no regrets. |

Do you know how, say, Native American cultures were kept? They had storytellers, sages, and the like. They passed on their legends and culture to the next generation. So will we. |

A year where the students learn a lot and win nothing is more rewarding than a year where the team does well and doesn't learn much. |

I think that FIRST should just give up and officially recognize Chiefdelphi as the place to go for community and team resources. |

The real question is not whether any teams have had metal in a speed controller, it's whether any teams haven't. |
