The big lesson we learned ... our past does not limit our future, that superior attitude will beat out big budgets. |

Failure is not an option. |

Heck, every human being has the potential to change the world, as long as the world still exists. |

Yes, a big part of FIRST is learning from others. But a just as important part of FIRST is learning from discovery. |

I don't understand why it should matter if your robot is 100% student built, 100% engineer built or somewhere in between. As long as you are Inspired (I word again) FIRST is getting its point and primary goal across. |

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.

It's always nice to have the outside party take a look at your code because one of two things can happen: 1. They write it better. 2. They find your stupid mistake. |

You need to stay on top of your classes or you will be back as a returning freshman on next year's team. |

Fire and smoke are great if you're into Battlebots, but we like to avoid them in FIRST competitions. |

Getting that degree is the reason for going to college. Failing out of school because you mentored isn't really a good reason. |

If you want to make change, you have to know what you're trying to change. |

Part of Gracious Professionalism is the Professional bit. Doesn't matter if you're a volunteer or a staff member, a failure of this level in the real world would result in getting fired. |

Like my programming class teacher has said multiple times: "Stop complaining on reddit about your code not compiling and actually fix it". |

Sleep?! How am I supposed to do that with the build season done?! There are still practice bots to make! |

I think a 100% student-run team is as good as a school taught by your peers. |

So let me get this straight. We'll have 6 hours to re-build an entirely new robot that took us 6 weeks originally to make. |

....you can't go to a single FIRST event without someone saying "Hey, Look! It's SuperNerd!" |

As you get more into your years in FRC, you start becoming friends with more people. You should try it out. Robotics people are pretty nice. |

Difficult? Yeah.
Extremely difficult? Some parts.
Doable? It's been done. |

Teaching students should take place in the offseason. Applying the skills learned is what the real season is for. |

Just keep doing. Everything. Keep designing, keep building, keep learning, keep fundraising. Build more robots, try more ideas, compete more and more and more. |

New CAD computer one day and the 254 Build Blog + Tech Binder the next? Christmas in July really does exist. |

I'm a bit wary about playing on the new fields, however, because of the Carson/Carver/Hopper/Tesla Curse. I hear no alliance from those divisions has ever won championships. |
|
Billfred |

Who knew there were this many FRC teams that are teams! Very impressive, I might add. |
|

Each team should ask not what their alliance can do for them, but what they can do for their alliance. |
