I think it's important to keep FIRST's most important award as the top point getter [in Fantasy FIRST]. It's help reinforce that the Chairman's award, Engineering Inspiration and Woodie Flowers award are actually important and FIRST is about more than just the robots.

When mentors and students battle it's the team that loses. |

I also hate it when I keep seeing this message: "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Andy Baker again." |

But, as a mentor I should caution you that FIRST is not about you its about the students. |

Engineers talk with math first, and grammar second. It is a fact of life. |

There is no rule that specifically states that you must obey the law of physics during the competition. This may be an oversight. |

It's not the name "FIRST" that is important but the ideas that go into and come out of it in the long run. |

but then again, isn't FIRST a sport? I mean come on now, our championship is nothing less than the super bowl. :) |

When I see stuff like that, sometimes I say, "That's BRILLIANT, why didn't I think of that?" But I never like the answer.

A mentor, by definition, provides a nuturing environment and, over time, makes themselves progressively unnecessary. |

FIRST is again mirroring real life. And in real life, when we build and design robotic and automated systems, it's safety first. Hitting a human in real life loses a lot more than 30 points.

Surely any group of rational human beings (which FIRST seems to attract) can work this out.

I feel there really is only one team, and the name of that team is FIRST. |

Successful FIRST team members know they always can improve themselves, not just as a FIRST team, but as people who can offer something of value to society.

More inspired students, more community involvement, less drain on the mentors... Sounds pretty swell to me! |

Part of the magic of FIRST is the interaction between different teams- and that becomes clear as day as the clock starts ticking. |

It's not fair. it's not right, but stuff like this happens. If you don't get picked for finals tomorrow, get in those stands and cheer for those who did. Remember, this is FIRST. |

I saw 2274, a rookie team that had won the regional, gathered around their mentor. He was holding their trophy and saying, "This is what it is all about. Teamwork and cooperation. You guys did great." |

The fact the FIRST knows no boundaries, either geographic or cultural, is certainly one of our strongest assets as we move toward a changed culture. |

If I can make one wish, it would be having Dean and Woodie read one of these writings of mine, so I can tell them "I get it! Give me time and give me inspiration, and one day I will be ready to take over the torch." |
