Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Please give us your feedback on FIRST Announcement of 2 Champions

I'm glad they are asking for feedback. However, surveys can be tricky things to interpret. The way the questions are asked definitely influences the manner in which they are answered.

I don't have extremely strong feelings about how season finale events ought to be structured. There are many, many, factors to consider. I want something spectacular, and I want something affordable. I want something that showcases the best of First, and I want it accessible to as many people as possible. These desires are very difficult to balance, and may even be mutually exclusive, so no solution is perfect.

However, the one thing that really struck me about the survey was how it continued to focus on the Championship experience as if that experience were limited to those people who were physically present at the championships. Even the most inclusive vision of the season finale events has no more than 25% of First teams in attendance. I think the other 75% matter too. This is the 21st century. You don't have to be in the same room to be part of the same experience.

Think outside the walls.
