2 out of 3
Like so many other things, the eliminations at IRI proved to be handled better than the "regular season". Perhaps it was the foresight of the IRI crew that it would be more exciting. Perhaps it was the hindsight that the eliminations at Regionals and at Houston were not very exciting. One way or the other, it was much better. 2 out of 3, hands down.
If only all the competitions could be similar to the IRI. If FIRST was able to develop the game, and test it sufficiently (a tall order for sure - but effectively the entire season would be similar to the post season is now), then we'd have the same consistency in referees and the same excitement throughout the competition that the IRI seems to excel at year after year.
