I'm pretty sure Andrew Baker and Andy Baker are the same person. Then again, Andy may just be holding out on us. |

Ah, this sounds like a sitcom whose pilot I should write and send to NBC - "Life With Lavery". There's a lot of eating, several practical jokes, and lots of bad hair. |

Although I have much yet to go, in my short time in FIRST I have learned there is no such thing as a waste of time, especially when a) fundraising, b) mentoring students, or c) reading directions.

This exercise in thanking the hand that teaches you brought to you by the Unsung FIRST Heroes Award. Have you thanked your mentor lately? |

Are we really that close-minded that we have to insult other teams that deviate from what we percieve to be right? Giving an opinion and insulting someone are far from each other. |

Sometimes, having someone that can teach you just shows you another way to do what you've been doing, but in fewer moves. |

Even though our team really digs the Tumbleweed name, the kids normally refer to the robot as the 'Neun-agon'. |

you know you have overdosed to first when while you are reading all of these things, you can smile and say "oh yeah, i miss doing that" and then, you start to tear up and scream "I MISS FIRST!!!" |

Those kids are different! They seem more mature, respectful, and intelligent than most adults. They can actually think instead of just spitting out facts. They are obviously getting a real education. |

In the end, we were successful, but the tale is one of such stupidity that it should be engraved in drool upon a failed math test. |

You can't stop trying to look for other ways to do things, or that really defeats the whole purpose of inovation. |

If you're sore over the vigorous defense teams play, get over it. It happens and will continue to, as the majority of people hope. |

If you're a spectator that's going to complain about a "bad" call, you darn well better know for a FACT that the call was "bad". |

If everyone spent half as much time reading and understanding the rules as they do complaining, arguing, and disagreeing about rules, we might not even be having this discussion. |

Anyway, everyone, PLEASE READ THE MANUAL VERY CAREFULLY and ask around for the answers before going directly to FIRST. :) |

Some of the most talented people in the world are designing robots in FIRST. If that were taken away, all of us would be poorer for it. |

My experience in FIRST has taught me that, whatever you do, make sure that no single failure can eliminate half your drive system.[...] The worst feeling in the world is having your robot driving around in circles when there is critical business to be done on the playing field. |

Titanium is almost twice as heavy as aluminum. I can have the bragging aspect of making a bullet resistant robot, but if someone is coming into a competition and shooting my robot, I have more important things to worry about! |

I urge them to build the kitbot and repeateadly smash it into a concrete wall in order to sate their anger. It will soon wane when they manage to do more damage to the wall than to the kitbot. That is honestly the reason that we ended up using the kitframe this year. |

And the rest of the team helped them, encouraged them, and made a big deal about how awesome it was that we were competing for the Chairman's Award. - Carolyn_Grace [more]
