It's a cool idea but the implementation of it could have been a bit better. Most of the questions were along the lines of, "How excited are you right now?", "What is your match strategy?" and "How did that last match go?". The first question will always have an answer of "Very!", the second will never get an honest answer other than "Score lots of points", and the third one would have been more interesting if the reporter didn't say, "That's great!" when 359 told them it all went horribly wrong and had instead listened and asked a little about how they tried to recover from their autonomous troubles.
I think the presentation similar to a sports cast, with the two "color commentators" between matches is something that needs to be done for a major TV network like ESPN to pick up the championship, but it could use some refinement. Maybe pick the emcee's to be the color commentators so that you're hearing the same voices each time, instead of bouncing around to 2 emcee's, 2 people giving the play by play, and 2 people at the sports desk.t

I know and agree... I was making fun of her over use of the word awesome. Roboshow in orlando has pretty good field side interviews. I don't know if the champs interviewer is affiliated with FIRST or not, but it helps if the interviewer knows the game and teams really well. Would've also been good to talk to the 4th alliance memebers and get their perspective, e.g. talking to 900 about the harpoons.
