i think that if you make the effort to know them, you will know the good teams.. no matter where they are from...

i've always been on a New England, gone to the New England regional.. but i know the teams in the Midwest, west, south, etc.. with good 'bots.. 47, 45, 16, 111, etc.. when we were #2 seed at the Nationals in '99.. our list of choices was quite well-rounded.. and yes the team we chose was from NJ.. but they had competed in a different regional than us...

i DON'T think teams need to 'market' more (look at my response to last weeks question of the week) i think teams just need to trust that each other knows what they are doing and that if they are through.. they won't just notice teams from their 'region'..

fact of the matter is.. you should pick the team that best matches your robot no matter who they are, who their sponsor is, or where they are from...

i think the system's fine.. no more marketing is needed.. and it's just up to teams to notice who they choose.. and if they are biased to their own region.. then oh well..

my thoughts..
