Very nice John. It worked perfectly for me. And thanks a million. I'm in Texas and didn't get to see it before I left.

Agreed. Best way to spend a Monday night ever. :) Now I gotta work on bringing something of this sort to Kansas for the Greater Kansas City Regional...

... all of the game announcing on the show was by Paul Copioli doing a first-rate job (intentional pun) with his play-by-play and explanation of the game and strategy. I haven't heard a FIRST play-by-play as well done as this one. I learned a lot. I have advice for you coaches who want to learn how to do a better job -- find a recording of this show and listen to Paul.

... and excellent use of the super-slow-mo and 'screen chalk' ... well done.

Thanks John for taking the time to convert and upload... thank you for sharing and letting us non-FiM folks enjoy the program.

This show just makes the Michigan District Format that much better: for less money, you get two events, a state championship, and a professional-quality television broadcast.

For a regional, you pay more, and just get ten matches + elims.

I am so jealous :)

I also liked how they explained the game at the beggining. Short, sweet, to the point.

The team fees did not pay for the broadcast, that was sponsored by General Motors.

I know, but this is the cherry on top of the cake of awesomeness that is the district model. I wish FIRST invested in making television broadcasts of the elims from a handful of regionals with production qualities as high as this telecast.

FIRST is built on a three-part foundation of commitment -- by sponsors, by volunteers, and by teams. By magic, each part receives a substantial return on what it commits to the goal of changing our culture.

By moving here and continuing my own commitment (in each of those parts), I have learned that the FIRST sponsors, volunteers, and teams in Michigan work to a very high standard of excellence. The FIM system is far from perfect -- but as Karthik likes to say (quoting Vince Lombardi), it is by relentless chasing perfection that we catch excellence.

That broadcast should set the standard for any FIRST event on TV. I wish they could do one of these for every regional...exact same format. Fantastic stuff.
