Re: FIRST on "The Fosters" - Monday Nights on FreeForm 8e/5p Starting Tonight!

Just watched the story arc on Vimeo. A couple of observations:

Nice that they had a female ref, although she was criticized (indirectly, since she was the only ref highlighted) for missing the call.

I noticed that Blair does not get credit on IMDB for his speaking part, which was much more than the ref or inspector.

While the mentor was a fair ways 'over the top' it was good that they didn't dwell on the team 'hating' on him, after their mentor told them to forget about him. In the real world we sometimes encounter such people and often that is the right response-- so that aspect was done well.

How many FRC'ers (especially students) will reach out to the Foster's fan discussion boards to inform and help those who had their FIRST exposure to FRC better understand the program and the fact that they can get involved-- with links to 'real' FIRST Stronghold matches !
