I think it's great the way people involved in FIRST always try so hard not to argue. It's a good sign that all the talk of Gracious Professionalism is working. |

I hope Dave doesn't see these. He'll want you to put in a banana and use it for a game clue. |

Without mentors, you wouldn't even be participating in FIRST. Your team wouldn't exist, and FIRST as a program wouldn't exist. If it did, it'd just be another form of a science fair. |

Since the dawn of man, martial artists have sought to master fighting styles that seamlessly blend the attributes of strength, power, quickness, grace, and speed. You've heard them all. The Tiger. The Crane. The Mantis. Now witness.......The Nerd. |

GP is a measurement that can only apply to yourself. To apply it to another is unfair to that person/group. |

The point of FIRST is not to create pretty robots. It's to teach kids about science, technology, and engineering. |

FIRST like life is what you make of it, if you would rather go through FIRST worrying about what other teams do to make their robots, then your destined for disappointment. if you go through FIRST making the most of it doing the best you and your team can then it doesn't matter what other teams do. |

There are a lot of great teams that impress me, but four that really stand out... Our team doesn't want to beat these teams, we want to be these teams. |

Throughout the "FIRST" experience we're all taught that if we try hard we'll achieve some level of success down the road; it hits everyone differently. |

A coin flip is a wonderful thing. Not because it makes the decision for you, but because when the coin is in the air, you realize what you really want. |

Hall of Fame FIRST Team 254 has arguably helped more teams become good than any other team in FIRST. I don't think they need a lecture on helping their opponents. |

Everyone builds their robots uniquely, runs their teams differently, and prefers all kinds of flavors of ice cream. Now, we are seeing that folks vent and react differently to a frustrating situation. ... and that's ok. |
