I didn't like a couple of things about kickoff this year. I feel like they showed the game animation way too early and it wasn't as suspenseful as it was in previous years. Maybe I'm weird, but I actually liked sitting through a few hours of talking and animations and whatnot before the game reveal, I think it built up more suspense that way.

This is also more of a local thing, but the St. Louis FRC Kickoff at the Science Center was in a different area than where it used to be (was in planetarium last season and before) and I feel like the atmosphere wasn't as epic as it used to be. Also they used to play a slideshow of the pics from the STL regional the previous year and it was a fun nostalgia spree each time before kickoff.

Plus no Stephen Colbert, man...
