Bring back the awards!

Here is a thought I had when rummaging through past award winners and the sort. I really think that FIRST should bring back the awards for Best Offense, Best Defense, and Best Play of the Day. It seems to me that the direction of FIRST has been more focused on the design and "purpose" parts of the game. As everyone knows, strategy is also a huge portion of this game...both on the field, and off the field. It only makes sense to me that a teams use of successful strategy should be rewarded...not to mention great plays such as team 67's capping of another robot definately deserve recognition. These awards are fun, reguardless if FIRST feels that they dont focus on the "purpose" of what we are doing. I say...lets get them back!

Good Luck!
