Re: FRC Top 25- Preseason Ranking

Two thing:

I think this is a really great idea, but remember its only 6 unnamed people. I'm sure the 6 people of highly knowledgeable, but we cannot be sure. Also, as stated before, 6 is an extremly small sample size and probably not a random cross section of FIRST. Perhaps we could run some nomination process and pick 25 voters to do a weekly top 25.

Secondly, I don't really think this is a bad idea. If I was a rookie team or any team not on the list, I first wouldn't be too upset because, remember, its only 6 people's opinion. I would then look at those 25 teams, learn more about them and try to emulate some of thier most sucessful practices and what makes them on the list. I would look at this as an opportunity to find teams to look up to and get inspired from.
