I thanked the tradesmen on our team the same way i do ever year with a handshake and a "thanks for helping us guys",

In my opinion, I wouldnt want gifts or praise from people about my help to a robotics team, all I would want is a thank you, that would make all my hard work and efforts worth while and it would prove to me that I could actually be making a difference in the students lives |

You can take the man out of FIRST, but you can't take FIRST out of the man.

I think the best driver team of the post season would be Mike Wade and Pete Baltzell- because they have been driving that NASA field all over the Northeast so all of us can play.Thanks guys!!

I learned about how FIRST really is about so much more than a robot competition, it is about team building and the individual. |

Of course even though its less than a week until kickoff, dave can still change the rules to make bearhugging me in automode a bonus |

Uh .. The CMU cam still needs some tuning. It was more attracted to the trees and the green panels on the fence than the actual vision tetra.

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" |

I really think we need to keep our pitchforks sheathed and torches unlit until we here more news and get more details. |

FIRST is here to inspire you, to challenge you. Part of that process is giving you a task too hard, resources too little, people too many, time too short. |

Now, what we really need is a big spotlight in the sky that shoots out the letters "CD" so Brandon knows to come running to the server cave ...
