If you use a flux capacitor make certain it is a COTS component, or that you fabricate it from COTS materials. |

My robot is my significant other. It makes me happy, sometimes it makes me sad, i wish it would lose some weight but it is always there for me. |

Haha, I applaud your efforts to read into the actions of the GDC, but I feel like trying to do so is like shooting at a target, in the dark, at a mile away, with a sawed off shotgun. |

You heard it here first folks. The robot will definitely need wheels and will probably have an arm. |

I, as a programmer, always strive to have the entire robot operate with as little driver input as possible. Those pesky humans.... |

Mentor: How is that held in place?
CAD Lead: Go to the hardware store and buy a bag of constraints and put the constraints on the robot. |

Needless to say, lots of smoke came out, and I debated using its terrible smell as a deterrent. |

Robot shoots forward across field and jams itself into opposing alliance bridge. It was, however, the fastest our robot ever went. |

You know you're addicted to FIRST when you text your mentors more than your friends from school. |

When more STEM teams exist outside schools than in them, that will be one indication that a true cultural change has occurred. |

It's not about taking risks, but more about identifying them (which is the hardest part) and reducing them. |

Continuous improvement turns good to great. Continuous tinkering can lead to inconsistent behavior and headaches. |

"How do we make our team be like your team?" That's the sort of question everyone should be asking of these so-called "elite" or "powerhouse" teams. |

I'm not of the belief that this is the intent or purpose of Chief Delphi. It is a place for sharing knowledge and information, perspectives, and humor. In the process, it has created community. |

...the list of the things we want to get done in the off-season has grown to such a length that I have to take off my shoes and socks to count them...and I think I may need to grow a few more toes soon. |

From a coaching standpoint, I can tell you...the coach is NOTHING without valuable scout information. If the coach is nothing, the robot is NOTHING. It all starts from the scouts...get your kids to see this. |

If I was making this I would want to not have to use anything smaller than a 3/16" end mill, but 1/8" would be acceptable. Anything smaller and I'd tell the designer to go play in traffic. |

We're 3 pounds over. Drill until the hole saw is too hot to touch, then go find something else to cut off while you wait for it to cool down. |

I've never liked the pressure pads. This just confirms my suspicions: Pressure pads hate robots. It must be some inferiority complex or something. |

You know you're overdosed on FIRST when you see the thread titled "team 228 can and bottle drive" and think "what kind of crazy drivetrain is that?" |

How is it that so many team representatives have the time to run up the post count to astronomical levels in a game hint thread, while so few seem to have the time to say thank you for a $6K gift that funds the ability to play the game? |

If you're in the Chairman's Award just to win the Chairman's Award, you're doing it for all the wrong reasons. The award is there as a goal to strive for, but it shouldn't be the reason why you conduct yourself and reach out to your community and beyond the way you do. |

If you spend the money on a new stadium, you might make a profit. If you spend the money on upgrading school lab facilities, you might inspire someone to make a vaccine for HIV. |

I think that FIRST should just give up and officially recognize Chiefdelphi as the place to go for community and team resources. |

If they had kids, they would be a super-breed of robot builders and drivers, and would win dozens of awards per season. |
