Re: Sad day, FIRST now FIRLP
I'm not saying this is the reason that FIRST and Lego struck a deal, but with FIRST and IFI breaking up that leaves a very large hole to fill. FIRST may have looked to Lego to fill the hole the IFI was leaving. However if this deal was struck when the FVC/FTC program was being created this may not be true. This is just more speculation, something to think about.

I will hold any more judgment until we get some hard facts. Maybe they will address these issues at Championships?
