funny thing is that he said July 28 instead of July 26.

we may never find out until the actual date rolls around.

Just keep your eyes peeled on your local TV Guide to see when it's on.

Message.....

Here is a message that i recieved from Andy B. today and its from Lori

Quote:

I just got this note below from Lori at FIRST.

I think that this show is an episide of A&E's series called "The Competition".
This series profiles various competitions across the US, and this episode is
about FIRST. I've heard that they are covering 2 or 3 teams and following them
through the FIRST Competition... kinda like the Lofgren video did with us in
'99.

The episode airs July 26th at 10:00pm EST (that's 9:00pm for us). Tape it if
you can... I'm sure that I will.

Its about time, it looks like we finally have a concrete date for it. Saturday, August 4th, 2001, 2:00P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, 1:00P.M. Central on A&E. I know I'll be setting my VCR. I can't wait to see it.

Where did this date come from? Does this mean that's the only day it'll be on T.V.?

Okay, time to make this a little more confusing. On A and E's website for The Competition, if you click on future topics and dates, for July 28th, they have "Mule Day," which has a description of a VERY not FIRST event. There are no shows listed past that one though. The time is from 2:00-3:00 though, a slot before the 10:00 premiere that has been listed elsewhere.

~Tom~, who can't spell worth beans but knows that FIRSTers are intelligent people that can make sense of it.

First post on the new forum for me.
