Re: Sacrificing a State Championship for the Cause???

In my opinion this is how first should be run in 15 years or so:
Each team is placed in a state division based on sponsoring, experience, past wins, and such. The divisions would be like varsity sports today with A-AAAAA.
The state would sponsor the state competition between each team in different divisions. Also the state would by the KOP for each team that wanted to have FIRST as a varsity sport, each additional part would have to be independently funded. The winners and runners up would all qualify for regionals. The regionals would be run directly by first and would have divisions A-AAAAA. The winners and runners up of each division would qualify for nationals. The national winners for only 5A would go to a world championship against the national winners for like Japan and stuff. IT WOULD BE INSANE.
