I was just about to say FIRST Choice this year was better than ever. I like the freedom of choice. The $30 to Banebots voucher, Gates Belts/Sprockets and Bimba Cyllinders were also very welcome and appreciated by my team.

The game is the best I've ever seen in FRC (like the 2010 FTC game). It was very exciting to watch finals. It was nerve racking to see our opponents balance, knowing we had to do the same to win in less time. Box on wheels bots had a place; super stars were still super stars. The rules weren't constricting. Strategy could be the deciding factor when executed.
