Re: Franco Harris to First
This is excellent. Franco Harris is a very well-known celebrity and a winner. This gives the Pittsburgh Regional some great publicity and will bring more people into FIRST. Franco Harris fans will now attend the competition, just for the slight chance to meet or see him. If a few of them get stuck on FIRST at the same, then we have a positive result.

While I forsee some people saying "we don't need jocks to help promote FIRST" or "this will take attention away from the teams", I see no harm in this. The bottom line is that this will bring FIRST more attention.

As for game hints: a robot will have to pass a football around the field, bouncing it off of opponents before their alliance partner catches it.
