Football Analogy

I don't think FIRST and BB should be associated. Think of it this way: BB = XFL; FIRST = NFL. Which one lasted? NFL. Which one will last? FIRST. Which one will fail? You guessed it. I enjoy watching a little BB now and then, but the true appeal of the show has yet to show itself. When i mention that I do robotics, people say, "like BB on tv?" I just shake my head and say no oh no oh no. As for the appearance of the Segway, I do not object to that. The Segway is a legitamite public invention, and is not associated with FIRST. Sure, it is through Dean Kamen, but Segway and DEKA are separate companies from US FIRST. I would however, greatly object to a mention of FIRST on BB.

Just my input.

Chris
