That works for me. We need to repair 2 robots for our weekend event at the
Novi Expo. Dean Kaman did an interview this morning on one of the local AM
radio stations, he announced the FIRST nationals would be in Houston Texas
this year. Something about a renovated sports arena.


That is the E-Mail that I have just receved from my mentors. YEA! Texas, here I come!!

(i'm hoping that this isn't some creul joke, that is why i put it in the rumor mill, but if it is true, put it on the portal page, plz!!)

I wasn't questioning the legitimacy of your post. I'm just flabbergasted that you people [who are obsessing over the location of the Championship] seem to make a new thread practicly everyday. Can't you skew the convo's of the other threads instead of taking up so much space on the portal page? Or maybe we can all just sit back and wait until FIRST tells us where it's going to be? The only reason they haven't done so already is because they're negotiating for a hotel package, and if teams start booking 10 rooms each in the city of the Championship it restricts the bargaining power FIRST has with hotels/buses/etc. Gah! Please stop doing this...
