I think it's good that FIRST put so much effort into reducing the barrier of entry for new teams and the general public. The more people that see how awesome FIRST is the better.

Because burying useful info is just generally bad design. I love the visual aesthetic of the new site, but can't figure out how to get to the game manual (or even if the manual is on there). It has a good amount of content for people curious about the program, but for teams it's a bit underwhelming in my opinion.
One of the things I really like, though, is the resource library. If FIRST plays that right, it could be huge for teams.
