Yeah those design flaws kill you in the end. You especially hate finding out about them in competition. |

To label hard work as unfair is really a bitter assessment. |

I'm still trying to find a way to get FIRST to dump the Chicken Dance song. :p |

Any FIRST pit is my favorite because that means I'm enjoying a FIRST competition so I'm just plain happy anyways. |

If you promote not only the growth of your own team but of other teams at other schools you are successful. |

Ask not what FIRST can do for you but what you can do for FIRST. |

If there was no internet then somebody in FIRST would probably invent it. |

Now if MTV had an episode of "Made" where the school's top jock wanted to drive a FIRST's teams robot to victory...now that would be a good one. |

If it gets people talking about not only robots but science and technology, it's all good. |

You don't need to be on a team to be involved with FIRST. |

The Chairman's award is about doing what you can to strengthen the FIRST community. It doesn't require money to simply lend tools, wise advice or a hand. |

My wife got mad at me when I told her I wanted to name our daughter Lotus. "What you mean the software?" she squawked. "No I mean the flower." I said. geeks, I swear.... |

Genius is one percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration, which is why engineers sometimes smell really bad. |

You just have to care enough to give it a try. Your mentors will appreciate the effort. |

It really is up to us to stand up for these principles so when we sell it to the general public we're not just feeding them some line because if we don't believe it, why should they? |

I think it's important to keep FIRST's most important award as the top point getter [in Fantasy FIRST]. It's help reinforce that the Chairman's award, Engineering Inspiration and Woodie Flowers award are actually important and FIRST is about more than just the robots.

Use the mentor to lay down the law. They're not there to be your friends they're there to keep the kids focused on the job at hand. |

Chiefdelphi is a great resource for all of FIRST to use over the years and has grown into a community that has taken a life of it's own. |

C'mon you guys you're all inventors. You guys should be making a portable cryogenic sleep chambers for those long bus trips! You got two weeks before you have to go. Get cracking! |

My nephew...loves FIRST. He wants to be an X-Cat but since he lives in Atlanta and that's a heck of a long commute for meetings I told him he probably should strive to be the next best thing: a CircuitRunner. |

We may not build the best robots but we're building better students in the long run and means much much more. |

Think outside the bot.
Find a different regional someplace you never considered before. There's plenty of them. |

in FIRST it's not just about where you finish in the standings but the intangible of inspiration where there is no true or immediate forum of measurement. |

The main use of Chiefdelphi is self expression of what FIRST means to you. |

I get in enough trouble mentoring one team. If I did five teams I'd be less one wife. |

Didn't you know? Kids today are born with GPS tracking systems installed so Mom's can look them up on Google Earth wherever they are and also know what they're doing for a living, eating the right foods and if they're dating the appropriate people. |

The sign applause was definately one of the best moments I had ever witnessed at a FIRST event. Who knew silence could be so loud? |

Geez, now I'm like some all-knowing all-seeing FIRST sage who lives in the moutains waiting for students to venture upwards to my home to ask me if there will ever be a water game....:rolleyes: |

People misuse GP because they see Dean as some sort of whimsical cross between the Nutty Professor and Mister Rogers and think that FIRST is Disney World and we're all going to happily hold hands around the campfire and sing happy songs all day long. |

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can AND WILL be held against you (AND YOUR TEAM) in the court of public opinion.
So choose what you do wisely. |
