Why is that? I like the idea that the PBS production will feature teams that may not be the ones that we typically see every year on Einstein. The fact that these teams may be from "the middle of the pack" may actually be what makes them attractive subjects for the story - they are more representative of the majority of "average" FIRST teams and possibly more representative of the typical experience.

p.s. and the whole "no big name teams" is somewhat arguable. Certainly Miss Daisy is very well known on the east coast as a hard competitor and three-time Regional Chairmans Award winner. Team XBot is one of the longest-term teams from the Pacific northwest. They are hardly unknown quantities.
