We are customers to FIRST. In that comes expectations. I don't want to hear another, "You should be grateful for everything FIRST does" nonsense when FIRST royally screws up. |

In my opinion, leaders do not need to be picked. They naturally emerge as time goes on and as more opportunities are presented to them. |

Torment us no longer, Oh most great and knowledgable Dave. We savor your every utterance. |

So we developed AI... it figured out the clue... already... made itself accordingly... and is currently walking to the peachtree regional if you find him ask him what the objectives are, we'd sure like to know! |

It's all about bragging rights, awards, and pushing the envelope, not necessarily winning or practicality. |

My wife is in advertising, and uses a scary amount of math. They have to know how to target you and beat down your defenses, so that you buy that hamburger while driving that car while wearing those designer jeans to your favorite store. |

You dont get paid based on your IQ, or how many things you have memorized, or what you can invent on your feet. You get paid for results. |

We might not be as good as 217, or the other traditional "powerhouse" teams... but we are better because of them.

We can't be afraid to critique the existing system. If we don't, how will it ever get better? |

If you never reach out and experiment with different things, you will never have the courage to reach out again. It's only through experiments and experiences where we get to understand ourselves better. |

I hope that kids will stop asking us if we build Battlebots and start asking us if we build Transformers. To that, I will answer with a resounding yes. |

It may not happen overnight, but in time if you keep focused and keep working hard, it will become a reality. |

I believe it is healthy to leave FIRST at some point and carry on with a well-rounded life (family, fun, school, & work). Focus your creative energy on developing your skills as a professional; then, come back to FIRST as a mentor later down the line. |

If anything, I believe Battle Bots is in the best interest of FIRST. Battlebots helps to create an interest in robotics, and FIRST gives us the opportunity to participate in a robotics program. |
