bigger than disney , somehow i dont see that happening in the near future but there is no better solution as of yet. I think FIRST is growing too large for disney but i am opposed to the even/odd system because it limits the teams that can go regardless of whether they earned their way, have been involved since the begining or otherwise, you still are limiting the number of teams. FIRST has to come up with a solution.

Heres a suggestion that i have been sitting on for a little while. Let me kno what you think.

Instead of holding the whole national event in Disney and holding it in four different arenas hold the different divisions in different locations kinda like the NCAA tournamemnt holds theirs in different sections and the winners go to Disney. Now i kno that some people are going to say well that defeats the whole purpose of the national event but not really if you think about it because it just gives you more inscentive and it makes the already competitve nautre of the compettion even more competitive.

Like i said its just a suggestion and it may sound a little biast but it is not meant to be so. I love this experience and i want to be involved for awhile, I would hate to see it go downhill because it grew to large. We need to grow, yes, but people need to start growing with us. Maybe Dean will just have to talk to his people down Disney and get us more room. I have no idea but what i do know is that we need to figure something out and we need to do it quick.

Let me know what you think...
