Right now that dream is sealed behind a few milimeters of plastic for most teams. |

kids these days, with their fancy aluminum sprockets, don't know how good they have it. |

FIRST is not about lowering the bar to those with the smallest expectations, but helping helping all teams exceed the standards set by the best. |

Wait, that's exactly how it's supposed to work, isn't it. Well played GDC, well played. |

Teams whose goal is to play on Einstein think about strategy differently from teams whose goal is to be selected for an alliance at a district event. |

For me Gracious Professionalism is about helping other teams make their ideas work. We do everything we can to help other teams program, or lend them parts from our pit. On the field we play to win. |

All in all, you get what you celebrate. The more we celebrate the under-served parts of our team the more students step up and make that part great. |

If you thought two alliances racing to tip the bridge in auto was exciting, wait until they play autonomous chicken on the center line. :D |

I think we sometimes forget that FIRST is not just about building robots. Its purpose is to educate and inspire young people in the field of science and technology. |

Obviously, really large issues need to be addressed, and if you feel there is a huge problem, by all means, go ahead, if you can be polite, productive, and graciously professional, address it. |

FIRST is an amazing combination of principles that, when applied to the world, has had a monstrous effect on the way High School students learn, think, and relate to others. |

Just because there is a limit, doesn't mean that they don't love you. |

Its not really a robotics competition. The robots are merely vehicles used to make society a better place, and to inspire the youth of the world to help one another, and to become more united.

FIRST is kind of like charity work... you are, even if only in some small way, helping our future just a little bit, and you get a great feeling from it. Even if you are just ringing a bell (or clapping MOE sticks together), you're helping. |

Don't ever give up on your robot, especially this early in the season. That robot is what you make of it. If you give it your all, something good is bound to come your way. |

Something has gone awry this year in FIRST. I think more teams are concerned with winning and their robot that they don't even stop to think about the kids on their team, or the learning experiences of others. |

Being a mentor only requires an open mind and fifty thousand times more responsibility.

we've got three years to perfect it. And then... who knows? |

FIRST has always been less than just a school activity for me and more of a way of everyday life.

FIRST is unlike every other organization or every other robot competition because it begs to you collaborate; it encourages you to be a better person through the help of others. |
Amanda Morrison |

The fact of the matter comes down to this: No matter what you are interested in, you can always encourage others. |

When's the last time you called up FIRST headquarters just to say thanks? Or saw a volunteer at a regional and said, 'Hey, you're doing a really great job here. Thank you for everything you're doing in your spare time.' |

And the only person who could really save my butt, Brandon Martus... is sitting across the table from me. Laughing. |

We like playing with power tools, stripping wire, or just stripping for alliance partners... |

I've learned that the measure of success isn't the money you make, the education you get, or the car you drive. Your success can only be measured in the amount of people in whose lives you've made a difference and the size of your heart. |

We honor those who are unsung - those without a trophy or a plaque to show their efforts. Those who may or may not get those things... but will still be on the sidelines, helping to guide FIRST in all the right directions. |

By being on your team, you are just that - on a team of people. Every person represents a team... You do, too. |

No disclaimer on earth lets you disassociate yourself with your team or what you represent because you want to say something not particularly nice, but lets you be associated again when you want to say something to encourage others, etc. |

Don't let the teams here be so much of an intimidation to you, but instead, an inspiration. They all had to start from the beginning, too. |

Dean may have asked that every high school in America be involved with FIRST, but he never said [teams] all had to have separate high schools. |
