Is the Chairman's Award fixed? I believe so.....

Over the past 6 years when I've been done in Florida, right when they announce the culmination of FIRST: the Chairman's Award, I get a burning desire in my soul for someone deserving to win the Chairman's Award.

However, for 5 of the past 6 years, I've been let down. Only once, Boston Edison/Plymouth North, did the Chairman's Award go to a team that didn't have the financial support of a small country.

I know as well as everyone else that in order for FIRST to succeed, finacial backing is needed. BUT just because you put up the money, doesn't mean that you should be guaranteed an award each year regardless of robot performance.

Once again, just an observation..

Later
Vinny
