Network TV broadcast + Sponsor logo display on network tv (espn, mtv, usa) = the network wanting huge sums of money to display the logos and the broadcast. Plus then theres fees associated with the staff to tape the show, the editing of the show and other things. Never will they show the event live. Thus is why if you can ever see a clip from the 2000 (i think) espn FIRST show, mch of the broadcast was a blurr, much of the team sponsor logos were censored and alot of the actual competition was cut and pieced together to the networks pleasings...

Thus is one of the many reasons why i think we wont see the FIRST competition broadcasted as an event and not documentary in our future any time soon...
