Right, play to win. Play to win the event or play to win one match? This year, unfortunately, they are not the same thing. |

An explanation of the reasoning behind design decisions will almost always result in a more thorough understanding of the solution than analysis alone can obtain. |

We should have a 'Steps Taken For FIRST' contest. Everyone wear a pedometer and keep a log of how many miles you walked at the St. Louis Championship. That could be a lot of fun. Do they make pedometers for robot carts? |

What I would really love to see is having the teams try to solve a problem that is real scientists are trying to solve right now. Wouldn't it be cool if a team came up with a robot design that could solve one of the world's worst problems? Talk about FIRST publicity! |

At this rate, Team Update #2 should just eliminate the Minibots and replace it with the drive team captains playing rock-paper-scissors to determine the bonus points. |

If you speak three languages, you're trilingual.
If you speak two languages, you're bilingual.
And if you speak one language, you're American. |

I understand that Dean Kaymen has now invented a super "sniffer" that can scout-out anyone within hearing distance that is remotely-involved with FIRST. |

A wrench isn't a nesscary part is it?
Last Night, we tested the robot and a large, (yes I said LARGE) wrench fell from somewhere on the robot....Along with bolts, nuts, and a very interestingly cut piece of Aluminum... |

Question: How can you tell the difference between an engineer and a programmer?
Answer: You ask them to count. Engineers start counting from 1. Programmers start counting from 0. |
