Still holding out hope for 2021.

*EDIT* I'll likely be doing lots of this in the coming days regardless. Just would be nice to focus some energies.

Rereading this, I better understand the dilemma some areas face. Being near Detroit, I have a pretty good feeling what my FIRST and Championship experience will look like through 2020. Those on the coasts... its a toss up.
I too am holding out for 2021. I still think there is a real possibility to do an offsite Champion of Champions round and have it televised which IMO is the real next step to "Making it Loud". Having helped with production of the MSC specials, I think FIRST could use this years program by Robozone as a template for their future production. IE, some background, some highlights from the two Championship events, and then the second half could be the two teams facing off.
The other format would be show the two FLL winners, then have FTC World Championship followed by FRC World Championship.

I plan to visit with a bunch of the Texas teams this year as much like the Michigan teams, we pretty well know where we will be in a couple years.
I need to finish my list of teams to see.
