And there's Grr robotics holding it's ground with X-tinguisher on the platform in the background.
I hope they can get qualified and find the money to come to Texas.

Congrats on a job well done x-cats!

Your team has always been one of my favorites and it seems like when we are at a competition together either your team or ours wins the spirit award. Great to see so much spirit and a great bot to go along with it!

Thanks!
You guys are definately up there in the forefront of one of the better FIRST teams out there.
See you guys in Houston!

You aren't kidding Ed. If I'm not mistaken it looks like we are holding back 2 top 10 teams...AT ONCE. Too bad nobody picked us. We can do this ALL day.

I actually predicted you guys would get picked and was surprised when you didn't.
Are you guys really too broke to go? Even if you win a regional?

Myself & the other tech teacher donated our Robotics pay so we could help bring down the cost of going to a second regional. We are broke... no money & no sponsor. We need to find something for next year or else we are out.

Nortel didn't "dump" us, We still have mentors from Nortel working with the team. Unfortuntly they couldn't find any money to help support the team. We ave tried contacting people on just about every level of the Nortel corporate ladder, I haven't heard a no yet but, I haven't heard anything in the past year so. I quit holding my breath.
