Matt. Your wrong, you do not speak for me and im sure many feel disapointed by this years game plan.
Your Grrrr`s are your opinion but we have ours, by expressing them we hope to let FIRST know through this media that "we" the displeased are unhappy.
Next year I hope Dean will remember many peoples displeasure at the drastic change in the challenge that we are all used to.
This year I have invited my Sister and her Daughter to visit America for the Nationals, they are comming from England and the cost is high.
I wanted them to see and feel the excitement that we saw last year and how the crowd would go wild at each game. I secretly hoped that my niece would return to England and get her school interested to enter a team for 2002 but seing this years challenge I dont see this happening.
I personaly will be out of pocket about $10,000 for this year and I dont see any excitement for my investment. I know FIRST is not about money but you know what.......
IT IS.
How much $$$$ will this years game cost you out of pocket Matt.
Your bugged and so are we.........
