Mess up something important and you lose. Just like real life. |

Scoring ringers is going to be like dating. While a select few will master it with relative ease, the vast majority will need quite a bit of time to refine their skills to an acceptable level. |

I'm thinking they subscribe to the thought that "the best offense is a good defense". They are from New England, after all. |

It's not easy dealing with the reality that others aren't as passionate as we are and that the process may be slower than we want it to be - but it gives me plenty of time to think and prepare. |

Not all FIRST people are nuts. Some are threaded holes, rivets, velcro, or zip-ties. Anything but duct-tape. |

You have not only joined a robotic competition, you will discover that you are becoming a member of a very large and wonderful family. The more years that you participate, the larger your FIRST family will become. |

Silly FIRST mentor -- actually spending brain power caring about a sporting event occuring during build season! |

We asked the neighbors if we could block the road before we did it. We had the rack out for a couple of hours. They are getting used to us doing odd things during build season. |

Can we just get over this inane lawyering of the rules and get back to building robots?

In FIRST, you can either have comfortable safety margins or you can have a competitive robot, you can't have both. |

You Texas boys and your fancy swerve drive. Why don't ya'll come up here to New England? I'm about to saddle me up a skid steer and herd ya'll fellers into a corner. |

To have respect for the process you are in right now, respect the knowledge around you by using it to your full advantage. |

I am a geek because of FIRST! Seriously, I was reeaalllllyyy boring before robotics. Not mechanically inclined at all. Now I love it! |

FIRST is an addiction but at least it is one of the healthiest addictions you can have (if you wear your safety goggles!). |

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all. I mean, I know we all get frustrated during build season, but we still need to make an effort to be polite and helpful. |

You really can't have a bad year. The only way you can is to come out of it and not learn anything. |

The manual can be compared to a textbook in school. If you choose not to use your textbook, you are asking to fail classes. |

I am sad that the Patriots lost, and I am happy for both teams that won...but I am even more thrilled that for the next two weeks robot building in the midwest comes to a standstill. ;) |
