Its been awhile since I last posted.

Though I am not part of a team any more. I feel that FIRST should keep changing the venues for the nationals for a couple of reasons.

1) For all the states that Does not have a FIRST team will get a chance and good look at what these schools can have their students and teachers / businesses involved in.

2) Why hold the Championship in one spot. Many sports hold their last game in one area Let FIRST be different and have their last game in many spots so that It keeps the level of excitment to highest.

3) Prices change all the time now a days. And guranteed next year the prices for using good ol houston astrodome as a venue would have increased some bit. It best to start doing some negotiating now all major venues like WDW, or the people at Astrodome in Houston before the nationals even comes around so that by at least march theres a definite site and teams won't have to wait as long as they did for a location and planning material.

Ummmm, I think thats it over from my point of view
