In Reply to: cheering for division

: Maybe the announcer from each division can lead us in a cheer of their own for the division. And by then, there will be no more individual competitions between every teams in a division, but instead a big bonding experience supporting the one they belong to: Archimedes, Curie, Galileo, or Newton...
I want Blair in Archimedes!!!
Lol, if what you say is true, will we be fighting over announcers?
Though I agree; Last year, I remember watching from the media platform a good chunk of my team scattered in the alliance to cheer on CHAOS, who a year and a day ago we won UTC with...and when I asked them later why they went to cheer CHAOS on, they answered it was merely because we had bonded with them at the regional, and since we had nothing else to do in the finals, they deserved as many voices as possible.
I think Dean finally found a way for the majority to care about the finals even if they're not in them
Great job!

PS - Do you think the stands will be separated by division too? And if it's not divided by FIRST, do you think teams will naturally meld together by division?
