Re: It's Championship, Not Nationals

I'm one of those people who still reflexively calls it "Nationals". If I think about it, or I'm writing something out, I'll usually take the time to correct myself. However, in general conversation, I'm still apt to call it "Nationals"... old habits die hard.

That being said, if they were to officially start calling it the "World Championship", I think I could live with that. Just calling it the "Championship Event" has never sounded right, to me.
