Should we really expect FIRST and volunteers to do that stuff in house?
Ryan is specifically complaining about Einstein. Yes, getting every event an HD webcast with cameramen who know where to point is a big task, but Einstein at the very least should have this, if not all the divisions...

Watching from home in 2012 and 2013 was pathetic, to be quite honest. I remember watching one qualification match in 2012 that 67 was in, but I couldn't actually tell which robot they were.
