To me FRC is like a varsity sport. You would not want a varsity football game moved because JV cross country wanted to use the stadium too (I ran high school cross country by the way). I understand many of the teams in the FTC are from smaller schools who don't have the resources to run a FRC team. However, FRC is the bigger program with greater crowd appeal with the top programs in the world. It think FRC deserves to be front and center much more the FTC and FLL. There is a reason football gets top bill in America over cross-country, I love cross country but football has much better entertainment value. I think if most of us here had a choice to watch a FRC or an FTC match, we would chose FRC.
