Re: Is competing at multiple regionals REALLY fair ?

Not so. The number of teams attending the Championship does not depend on the number of multiple-Regional winners. A team that is already eligible to go doesn't take extra spots if it earns its eligibility in more than one way.

Also most of the teams, from the midwest at least, that travel to more than one regional already have bought their way into Atlanta...paid their way to Atlanta...Yet, my team is one of the teams that has been subjected to playing quite a few of the teams that win more than one regional, and pay for Atlanta.
What payment are you referring to? Every team pays in order to register for the Championship.

I'm sad that you feel stepped on. I firmly believe that it's within your power to aspire instead of lament.
