Instant replays on the bigscreen and unfortunately there will be referee recall after reviewing the play via video tape. Skyboxes will be for sale at the regionals, and minirobots to the first 10,000 people to walk through the doors at nationals. Ra! Ra!

Finally we are gonna get footballs in FIRST. I've been waiting a long time for this...I applaud the move! I'm also a large supporter of instant replay...should be a great addition to the game!!! GO NFL (National FIRST League)

Good Luck,
Andy Grady

::sigh:: Whomever invented April 1st was a goofy dude.

did any of you guys hear what my team just heard we got an email from first saying that The Championship has been cancelled due to lack of funds. They said that our registration fees will not be refunded and will go towards next years registration.

Um..., never mind. I'm not going to dignify your above statement with a comment. Not the FIRST part. The other part. The knitting part :rolleyes:

Now that FIRST is being purchased by an NFL owner, perhaps we'll see further similiarities to the NFL. So when will the first multi-million dollar contract for a mentor start? Will Delphi be able to pay Andy Baker enough to keep him on or will he enter the free agent market and switch to a different team?

Any and all offers should go to my agent. She is the mother of my three daughters.

And now I've gotta negotiate with the team owner since you're pushing our salary cap... grr.

With headquarters now in Indy (home of the Indy 500) does this mean I can throw away my drill motors and drop in a "hemi"?
