Wow... I didn't even notice that sentence until you pointed it out. I actually thought you inserted to create a rumor! Then i went and checked and it's actually there.
Does FIRST really make decisions this early about what next year's game will be like??? The team forum hasn't even happened yet.

: Patrick,
: Thanks for your post on the site. And you were right about most of your issues. I ask for team's suggestions, comments (good and bad) every year after the season is over. I keep ALL the suggestions that I receive from you (teams) and bring them up at our weekly meetings. We can't implement all of them in one year, but we try to do as much as we see feasible.
: I would not suggest a petition, but a letter, email or phone call (email or letter is better because it's in writing). FIRST is more open to constructive suggestions than petitions. I assure you that if you send me an email, I will keep it, review it, bring it up at meetings and in some cases, forward it to Dean and Woodie. I sent many messages to them from teams this year! ***** I think next year you will see more competition! *****
: Thanks again..........
