Let's be realistic here. The "Show" went on all too long as it was. Saturday night was long and we did not even get to present the teams that won our division their medals. They were told to send someone down to pick them up.

By putting the Woodie Flowers award on Friday shows that they believe that all of the other awards are just as important as the WF one. Maybe I am wrong but show me a WF winner that is not a well respected part of FIRST and deserving of recognition. Let's give FIRST a break. They are trying to do the best they can and most of these awards given on Friday were prejudged and ready to go. I have issues with FIRST from time to time but I am positive that there was no reasoning behind the timing of these awards presentations.
