We have to have a water-based game discussion each year, because every time I try to start up a "jello-based game" thread no one takes me seriously... |

WHY WON'T THESE THREADS DIE!!!!!!! Eeach and every year there are at least two discussions about water games. |

It's cool to see that Shaun White is an active team member (6th person from top left). That guy must be amazing, as he can win a gold medal in snowboarding while also being active on a FIRST Robotics team. |

Chuck Norris can be the human player and throw a Poof ball into the 3 point goal and it counts. |

The manual can be compared to a textbook in school. If you choose not to use your textbook, you are asking to fail classes. |

Honestly, I'd volunteer my team to be on that alliance. It'd be an honor to touch bumpers with those bots. |

A chop saw may cut aluminum, a knife can also be used to eat ice cream. |

You know those gravitational waves you keep hearing about recently? Those weren't created by colliding black holes, they were created by our boulders colliding with the opposing alliance's tower. |

The easiest and most effective way to do this for the Championship event is pre-competition scouting, with statistics. Nothing beats it. Hands down. Period. The End. Nothing's better. |

My son just said, "That's the kind of thing that you talk about in strategy sessions then say, 'nah, that would never really work.'" Un-be-freaking-lievable. |

To me, FIRST is about having students realize that there IS an answer to the age old high school question: "when are we ever going to use this crap?" |

Only time will tell for sure, but it seems that the current software providers are hatching up a pretty good solution to the problem. |

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. |

We need to all remember we are no better than our fellow man, no matter what job we all hold, what socio-economic status that's involved, or anything. Plain and simple, we're all fellow travelers on this pale blue dot called Earth. |

The ideals that are held by myself and by many of the longtime FRC mentors and volunteers whom I consider friends and colleagues are bigger than FIRST, and we will find (or make) another vehicle for them if we are forced to. |

The great thing about liking someone in your robotics team is that they've already seen you at your worst, and you cant shock them with ANYTHING anymore :D |

My mom's cousin heard from her friend who heard from her brother who heard from his barber who heard from his son that his teacher told him that his father's brother's sister's former roommate heard from Frank himself. |

Don't be affraid of trying new things... Even if people say you are crazy, even if you get insulted, even if it involves a lot of time and money, try it. You can't know if it'll work or not if you didn't try it yet. |

Active control of game pieces throughout all stages of your robot's interactions with it is critical. Never let gravity/inertia control the game piece. If you want a game piece to go somewhere, you MAKE it go there. |
