Could make a draft night show out of it.


EDIT:
And with the 10th round, 86th pick of the draft, Andy Baker selects 3940 for Newton.
This is an amazing idea.

I think FIRST hasn't TRIED to balance championship divisions, other than making sure rookies are relatively evenly distributed. If they wanted to, they could do some sort of structure like you're suggesting, Brian, or literally just distribute teams evenly by OPR. It's not too difficult to create even divisions, they just haven't tried.
