Re: 2011 Lesson Learned: The Negative

We've been at this for twenty years. Why are people still calling it "Nationals"?

Not only is it disrespectful to the non-US teams, it's demeaning to the competition itself. One of the speakers on Saturday mentioned how taken aback he was by the number of flags above the stage. Even Dean looked up with awe. What an amazing accomplishment for FIRST, and what an amazing accomplishment for all who travel to the Championship event, and what an incredible accomplishment for those who win!

It's not Nationals. It's Worlds. Or, even better, The CHAMPionship.
