But hey we are used to it, they had nothing to say when we were alliance captain 2 either in CVR after leading the pack at end of Day 1.

I agree with Citrus Dad CVR should have been highlighted more with FOUR WC teams facing off rather than also-ran. That is what top 25 is a joke no one knows what is going on everywhere everyone is in their own little niche FRC world. That is why I think coverage should reflect all regions equally. In GameSense if you were not a district event you did not rate.

I'm pretty sure we played with some of the best bots the world has this weekend in CVR and would put them up in a heartbeat against Texas. Ridiculously talented top talent on display.
Nothing is stopping you from analyzing this week's 21 events while being very careful to not put too much attention at any one event for fear of teams calling you biased.
