Congratulations teams! Toronto was DEFINITELY my favorite regional to watch... even brought the ol' sprint cellular modem along to listen to it on the road.
Great job on playing a fantastic regional!
[EDIT]
Amazing, huh... the FIRST comminity's FIRST two-time 3-regionals-in-one-season winners! Congratulations 1114!

After the GREAT coverage the discovery channel provided in Toronto, I was left wishing they'd covered more regionals! Having a reporter there 'on the scene' made it so much more exciting... just like watching a big game on ESPN or the like. I think FIRST should seriously consider arranging for some form of floor reporter at as many events as possible.
Kudos to the Discovery channel! I sure hope they cover Atlanta!

p.s. Does anyone involved in getting the Discovery channel to Toronto know anybody I could poke to improve the chances of them covering the Championship? If so, please let me know!
