There's no feeling quite like that one you get when you're behind the diamond plate controlling a metal beast that you've put your blood (literally), sweat (more literally), and tears (probably literally) into, and it working. Undescribable. |

The game ends after two minutes and fifteen seconds. The build season ends after six weeks. Using the experience to help improve yourself and the rest of the world will take the rest of your life. |

In my book the team building experience of the kids training the engineers in the operations on the field would be invaluable. It might not get a trophy but you win far more in the long run.

Students dream up the ideas for bots, it is than up to the mentors and engineers to make these dreams a reality. |

You have no idea how happy I am that so many are taking an interest into accomadating their off season competitions for pre-rookies. |

When it is so boring and slow on here in the summer it is funny how all of us just jump at something technical. |

I truly love zipties. They're so elegant - permanent, yet disposable. Strong, yet flexible. Ubiquitous, yet somehow.... special. |

kids under stress + poor eating habits + even worse food+ walking around a cold ice rink all day + contact with 100s of kids from all over the world = robo flu. Maybe the virus going around is the real "FIRST fever" |

Same as regrets in life: Learn from them.
This is called "growth". |

Obligatory warning: School comes first. If you have to choose between doing homework and going to a build season meeting, do the homework. |

Wisdom is knowing the difference between "the way to do things" and "the right way to do things." Just because an action may be physically possible does not mean that it is smart to do. |

you know your team has respect from teachers when classes start waving projects during build season saying you get full credit if the robot ships. |

I'll toss this out to stir up the pot: if you need double precision floats for your FRC software, you should re-think what you're doing. |

the chicken crossed the road because it was a boundary. it wanted to demonstrate the spirit of FIRST by crossing that road. |

I would be kinda creeped out if I was one of the "famous" FIRST people. Why? Because no one is any different than anyone else in my eyes. Granted, some people stand out more, but that is because the other people might not have gotten a chance yet to shine. |

FIRST robots are not six week projects. They are never ending projects where the requirements are changed on an annual basis. |

I don't think it's that big of a deal if FIRST makes a few mistakes or cuts back every now and then. Personally, I'm just glad I have the opportunity to be in this program. |
