Wow! sounds really cool, will they be running it also on thursday and friday?

Except that at GTR there isn't really much time between matches......But I do think the pit action will be pretty cool!

I believe GTR is only 1 field this year, so there will the some time in between matches to go to the pits and stuff. Plus they will probably have multiple cameras so they can just switch back and forth

I heard it was two fields again this year. Which is sweet for us, being new to this regional. I'm so pumped for this! and Discovery is hosting a webcast!? that's awesome! Get it hosted onto TV? That's a heck of a lot of publicity! way to go whoever organized this!

This sounds awesome!
It is exactly what The Blue Alliance wanted to do for the UTC Regional. Of course, the resources available would not allow it. But a valiant effort was made. Check out the episode they made, it won't be as good as what Discovery puts out, but it is decent.
I can't wait to watch it this weekend.

I am so pumped for this. I've been waiting for FIRST to make a return to the Discovery channel since the 2003 coverage.

I went to the Discovery Channel today and it still said that the US people couldnt view the video. Does anyone know if it will change during competition? And steve the NASA broadcast site directs users back to the discovery channel site. Does anyone have any new info on this? My team is there and I'd like to see them. Thanks

I will check with Discovery as soon as they come in. I will update you as soon as possible. First I have to go and eat some of that great Canadian Bacon and have some pancakes with fresh Maple Syrup. :p

I have just spoken to my contact at Discovery Channel. Even if the site says that it is not available outside of Canada, it will be available. They will also be giving me a link if people are having problems. More to come

As of 8:08am in Warren, Ohio, The site is still blocked. I don't want to be a pain so go get that Canadian bacon and pancakes and get back to me. I wish I was in Canada to join you for breakfast. It sounds delicious

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Greater Toronto Regional Live Coverage
 
Just a question. Is anyone going to be recording the feed from Discovery. I won't get to seem much of it, but I'm very interested in the unique coverage they will be giving this weekend. I want to see how that handle it all.

Someone try out the 3D camera and post about it after a little while too. It's sounds really cool.
