Re: New Chairman's Award Eligibility
Just because life and FIRST isn't supposed to be fair doesn't mean some attributes of fairness aren't ideal. I know life isn't fair, FIRST isn't supposed to be fair, yeah yeah.
Consider this situation (which is a very real possibility next year when 67 becomes elgible again and 51 is at the same event, taking 2 of 3 Michigan RCAs potentially). Say Team A is a Hall of Fame team. Team B, who is just a step behind Team A, but almost as good and better than every other non RCA team in the country, loses to Team A at a regional. Team C, who is worse than Team A and B but still very good, is good enough to win an RCA at a separate event. Team C could enter the Hall of Fame when Team B is better.
I just don't see the reason or positive impact that allowing old Hall of Famers to win regional chairman's again will have. Please tell me what I'm missing here.
