When it all comes down to it, it's not gonna be the medal around your neck that makes the difference, but the memories that you think about when you look back on how you got there that makes the difference. |

While [a college FIRST competition] would be pretty fun, I think that you'll see this build season that mentoring is a heck of a lot of fun too. (except when the kids pretend to cut their fingers off to see your reaction) |

Brandon, it's not an issue... but the fortune cookie thing that you get when you give someone rep is a little creepy... |

You know, I have 2 big addictions in my life right now: ice cream, and FIRST. While the prior may not be great for my health, I think I'm doing just fine with FIRST. |

Enjoy doing what you do. If you enjoy your life, what you're doing in it, and how you're living it, then what other people say or think doesn't matter. |

I guess this means we have to work on becoming super-flexible and always be ready for our close-ups at robotics from now on? |

Take what you have learned, build on it and share it. Others will do the same. Enjoy the journey. |

Look at the success of the Banebot's gearboxes this year. Cheap, light, small, and a lot of people are using them, even though their quality may be a bit questionable... Make a similar gearbox for a drivetrain (with a bit more robustness) and I think you've got a winner. |

It's up to veteran teams and mentors to help keep the original spirit of FIRST alive. - It's up to us to make these boards exemplify the FIRST principals in every post.

Finding those students and giving them a lift up out of the sea of apathy that is constantly trying to drown them is one of the reasons I am in my profession. |

Some said the aluminum foil gave the robot a NASA-like quality, but others pointed out that blanketing components with a highly-conductive material that blocked air flow was probably not going to help get us to Einstein. |

It definitely looked like a penalty, but in FRC if it looks like a penalty and smells like a penalty, well, unfortunately it might not be. |
