I got dragged into FIRST against my will, and it was the best thing that's ever happened to me. |

Even better than any [book] is simply becoming an active member of the Chief Delphi forums. Where do you think I got everything I know? |

Kyle from team 45 said "Dude, I still have 2 years left in FIRST ahahaha.." My response to that was... "Kyle, I have till the day I die." |

Of course this should be your decision- not the FIRST community's. Take charge of your destiny. |

We have donut eating contests to see who has the best legs. We paint our pigs. We argue about which time zone we are in. About 400,000 of us gather together to watch cars go around in a circle. We also build robots.Yep, our cultural norm is a bit different. |

We all need to keep things in perspective. When you look back at the entire 2005 FIRST season, is your entire experience defined by the presence of a little cloth flag on the play field? |

The competition is about MUCH more than just the robot. If kids are glued to the robot all of the time, then they miss the rest of it... the other fun stuff, what makes FIRST, FIRST. |

Don’t choose to aim for the stars because they mark the peak of our abilities, don’t choose to aim for the stars because it is easy, choose to aim for the stars because it shows the depth of our potential; choose to aim for the stars because it is hard! |

To me, being in FIRST is the biggest learning experience anyone can have. I want to give that experience to everyone I can, be it now or thirty years down the line. |

A robot is replaced every season by the next robot, but a friend, team member, mentor, and memories will never be replaced. |

I think it's great the way people involved in FIRST always try so hard not to argue. It's a good sign that all the talk of Gracious Professionalism is working. |

But if we just re-play "Triple Play" then what in the world will the Game Design Committee do with all that new-found free time? Since they wouldn't have to come up with a new game, they would have to concentrate on other things - like how to enforce the proposed "no metal on robots" rule. |

Look guys, I am telling you for the fourth time - you are NEVER going to earn your official "Geek" certificates if you keep spelling "pwned" with an "O" in it! |

...the list of the things we want to get done in the off-season has grown to such a length that I have to take off my shoes and socks to count them...and I think I may need to grow a few more toes soon. |

These awards aren't easy to get, and if a team deserves an award, they deserve to be cheered on for it. |

I applaud teams that make signs of all kinds - giant numbers, large banners, humongous heads. It's all good. |
