Plus, its not like we have to compete at NJ, we choose to go out and play during week 1 because its fun to see how the game will unfold.

What's wrong with Week 1 Regionals? Is it because the competition isn't as harsh? I think the competition is fun regardless, plus my team actually did quite well in NJ this year, since not everyone had had as much practice in Philly. I'm not trying to sound mad, I just don't understand what's wrong with Week 1 Regionals.

Why? Because the first Saturday (the traditional date) is Jan. 2nd which would be too close to New Years day. Thus, everything is being shifted back a week.

Is that a confirmed date, or are you just speculating?
