Re: Championship Week, ARE YOU READY!!!?

Ladies and Gentlemen, the moment of truth is nearly upon us...

Every year hundreds of teams decend upon the 6 fields of Championship FIRST. It is a spectacle which is rivaled only by the greatest of sporting events. There is drama, excitement, grit, determination, glory, dissapointment, elation, and celebration. Each year carries with it a captivating story. This year will be no different...

Who will walk away from Einstien reigning supreme? Will it be the four time champion, in search of the magic number 5...or will it be somewhere out of the unexpected? Going into the event all eyes are on a bunch of Raiders. Team 25 goes into the event as a favorite comming out of the Newton divison...the question arises...will a certain "Stang" or "Poof" have something to say about it...or will they join the empire and make an unstoppable force? Or how about a robot named MORT, who seems to be quietly positioning themselves for a major run at the title. One would have to think whoever comes out of the Newton Division, has the upper hand....

Or do they?

One would think that a certain Pink sharpshooter might be able to turn a few heads over in Archimedes. Could they give something Newtonian a run for their money?

Or maybe a long time veteran X-Cat will finally surge its way among the top of the class, or how about a certain Goats Heard, as Gompei looks to make a run out of Galileo. As always, there is always a Technokat or a Gael Force, looking to return to a glory once held...

Or maybe it will be a Rocketeer?

Why not look up?

Up, as in north. For years the country of Canada has been yelling and screaming for the heads of the FIRST world to look its way. Now the world has no choice, for what comes out of Canada is a three headed monster that may not be able to be stopped. Could it be that this is the year that the Maple Leaf gets raised with the golden FIRST trophy?

Or will it be the year that a Bobcat, a Buzz, or Rhode Warrior brings the New England region back into the fold? The Bobcats have two regional victories under their belt, and have been slaying offensive monsters all year long, might they have the answer for the offensive juggernauts found out of the other three divisions?


Or will this be the first year that a rookie team does the unimaginable? Evidence would point in that direction with the influx of amazing young blood among the FIRST ranks. 8, count them, EIGHT regional victories went to rookie teams this year. Can you say overdue?


Or maybe it will be another one of the 344 teams who will grace the carpet and ramps...aiming high.


Every year has a story...

Will this year be yours?

Good luck to everyone!
