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

sometimes you have to dig through the trash and clean off the layers of dirt and grime in order to find diamonds in the rough. |

Since the dawn of man, martial artists have sought to master fighting styles that seamlessly blend the attributes of strength, power, quickness, grace, and speed. You've heard them all. The Tiger. The Crane. The Mantis. Now witness.......The Nerd. |

Javelins, armadillos, and rhubarb pie haven't been used as game pieces yet, either. Just sayin'. |

New mentor joins one team and ends up impacting several in the same region. I like that. :) |

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

The name of the game will be "Conjunction Junction".
The robots will be tasked with hooking up words and phrases and clauses.
You're welcome. |

The real key to drive team coaching is to tie your jacket around your waist. Got a couple championship rings that way. |

In fact, our robot YOLOs so hard it does drive-bys on the refs. |

It's a bit sad, really, because FIRST has already reached other countries and there are some U.S. states that still are unaware of what FIRST is!! |

I don't think we should only be pointing at those with exceptional bots, but those that we consider a role model team in all aspects, not just in technical design |

actually, I don't work with mechanics, so I just barely learned what Lexan was a few days ago...long story... It's amazing the variety of things FIRST teaches us!!! |

Learn all about the alternatives, and choose wisely; don't rush the decision--this is too important to your success to make a mistake. |

I don't know how much of a safety factor chain manufacturers build into these ratings. I've got empirical evidence to demonstrate that it's not 5, however. |

If it's the loss of American lives that concerns the nation, why not campaign aggressively against smoking, or improve automobile safety? At least then, the benefits will be tangible, and substantially more significant to the well being of the locals. |

If they need a place where they can get a chance to learn interpersonal skills (like a team), it might just help them to become well-adjusted adults, as opposed to pathologically antisocial engineers (who got good grades). |

Incidentally, this is a good example of why lawyering the FIRST rules is good practice for the real world. By critically analyzing FIRST's errors, you practice for the day when you need to critically analyze legislators' errors (and deliberate trickery). |

We need to all remember we are no better than our fellow man, no matter what job we all hold, what socio-economic status that's involved, or anything. Plain and simple, we're all fellow travelers on this pale blue dot called Earth. |

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

Many students I have met will insist that nothing is better than FIRST robotics. And most people would agree that a ham sandwich is better than nothing. So does it logically follow that a ham sandwich is better than FIRST robotics? |
