Re: So who do you think is the favorite to win this years Chairman's award?

357 has a very impressive resume this year, with strong historical support. They won the RCA in Philly, against 341, and the EI in UCF, against 79 and others.

365 is a multiple RCA team, with a very long and impressive history. They run an off-season FRC competition, and an actual FVC regional event.

612 has one of the truly unique stories to spread, about their "baby walker" project, as well as a very strong bond with the Smithsonian.

1002 will be the first 4 digit team to win the Championship CA, and has one of the best programs in FIRST. I'm not sure if this is the year though (keep on trying guys!)

45, 71, and 111 all have impressive resumes as well.

My "favorites" this year would have to be 357 or 365. 1002 will win in the next couple of years, and if 612 keeps doing what they are doing, they will certainly have one in the next few years as well.
1114 may win one eventually, but I don't see it coming very soon. NiagaraFIRST is definately impressive, but compared to a few other programs, it still has some work left to do.
