why would someone do that? Go on the internet and tell lies? |

Looks like it will be to your advantage to keep the Refs happy.
Remember, Donuts go a long way toward that end! |

Everyone has regrets in robotics- it's how you learn from them that makes all the difference. |

No matter what happens to the robot we learned our lesson and we had fun. That's what matters. |

The key is to get the WHOLE TEAM to understand that you are designing and building a robot, which is a complete system - not just a collection of mechanical assemblies stuck together. |

It takes a special kind of lunatic to be the school sponsor/mentor for an FRC team; when you get one be thankful. |

It is not your banners that make you nor the trophies that line your walls. It is the willingness to be brave in the face of defeat and compassionate in the winds of victory that create you. |

Also, if Beatty fielded a refrigerator we'd still pick them; how can you not - "all they ever do is win". |

My lasting impression of 217 (for years now) has been based on how their robot looks, dynamically. It is poultry in motion. :) |

Just think outside the box but inside the 28" X 38" X 60" rectangular prism and you may come up with a solution. |

Set your goals as high as your team thinks they can achieve (drafted, drafting, win awards, regional champs, world champs, etc) and go for them. Let the chips fall and have no regrets. |

When there appears to be something stupid wrong with a game (HPs outscoring robots, unreliable loading, autonomous that accomplishes nothing) I shouldn't complain about it. I should see it as a challenge to exploit! |

Winning medals and awards, being on TV or in a magazine while cool doesn’t even begin to compare to the relationships I’ve developed working with a bunch of great students. |

So the bar is set insanely high. Probably unachievably high for some of us. But what a shame it would be to lower it. |

We just need to make engineering an interesting everyday thing, as visible as art exhibits or concerts or football games. |

your time is better spent in the stands, watching what the robots actually do, as opposed to listening to the builders talk about what they're [I]supposed[/I] to do. |

I think it's pretty cool that the Black Eyed Peas and other celebrities are willing to take up their time to come celebrate science and technology with us. |
