Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FIRST Adds District Event Model Alternative to FRC Program

Wow I hate to bring up the fairness thing but I can't help myself.

Michigan teams are going to get more plays per team, more bang for their buck while the rest of the country is still shelling out full price. Happy for my MI friends but quite frankly that sucks for the rest of us.

The Boilermaker regional once again will bear the brunt of the burden without the Michigan teams that have supported that regional in the past.

Starting in 2011 we are going really to have a two class system, what will FIRST do to help out the teams not eligible for district events?
