Re: National Webcast Information:

Well I am very dissappointed in the fact that there will be no NASA TV Broadacast. Many things have changed with NASA in the last yr or so and after being in FIRST for 4 years this has got to be the first time that NASA has not setup a NASA TV for the nationals that I have seen. :-(
But on the other hand last yrs TV Broadcast wasn't the best. Every 5 secs the screen would change to a different field. Now while their intentions where very clear (they wanted all divisions to be shown) they could have at least stayed on one field during one match get the score and change to the next field.

Where as with the webcasts they split the 4 divisions so that they may be played individually.

In any case maybe Saturday they'll clear the schedule and do a TV broadcast of the remainder qualification rounds / elimination rounds and awards.

I just hope they have a good feed to their servers b/c with the added fact that there is no TV Broadcast and Only a webcast that will put alot of load on their lines. Which means Webcast Quality will not be the best.
