Let’s all be thankful to have the opportunity to compete in an enriching and fulfilling (for me personally anyway) competition, made possible only by some tremendous effort and equal amounts of generosity by some very special people (you all can name more than a few). Maintaining a narrow focus on who beat who, by how much and with what means, will blur the big picture. Strive for self-improvement, through determination, hard work, open-mindedness and learning. Bringing the other guy down won’t improve your status.
Remember, its a GAME and the importance lies in how its played.
Considering ourselves better off because of the FIRST experience - TEAM 248
GOOD LUCK ALL
