Whether we realize it or not, we've all been touched by the works of Dr. Kamen - through his TED talks, through his research and scores of publications in pediatric oncology, or perhaps more directly through his daughter. What an incredible life, what an incredible legacy. |

Reach out to successful teams and ask them for help, rather than complain about them. I have never seen a successful team deny help to anyone. |

One of these years, the game piece will be an actual red herring. |

To me, as a student, it doesn't really matter how old the RoboCoach is. My only concern is that they don't get ape-crazy when the game starts. |

The first team that uses a lawyer to interpret the rules should be disqualified from all competitions, just on general principles. |

If I run into some of your team's student coaches/drivers on the field of battle someday, I still might ask 'em what they're doing after high school. :) |

They had a well made scouting form on the bottom was a check box with nothing next to it, when asked what the box was for they said.
"Oh thats the jerk box"
Since then one of our team goals is "Stay out of the jerk box" |

Part of FRC is to introduce you to how engineering is in real life: you can't use a redo card if you're landing something on the moon. |

Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but you don't know why. On our team, theory and practice comes together. Nothing works and nobody knows why. |

Stand scouting allows you to get to know the robot.
Pit scouting allows you to get to know the team. |

We all change, and we need to make sure that we can grow and change together in a positive way. Keep close the people who are capable of doing this with you, and you will surround yourself with the tools for success. |

For example an iron block is very simple and very robust. Strap a control system on it and it will meet the requirements of being a FIRST robot. However, it sure doesn't do very much, nor is it innovative. |

But on the plus side, we can drive the robot with a DDR pad, which is crazy-stupid-cool. |

Yes, I have already determined that the device is capable of launching 2,160 Krispy Kreme donuts into the back seat of my Mustang with a vertical displacement of 65 feet, without cracking the sugary glaze on a single donut. |
