Kick that dead horse!

What FIRST can do!?

Accept these other competitions.. embrace robotic education.. and ride the coattails to a brighter future of America and the world!

K.. maybe not.. but seriously...

Best thing for FIRST: keep on learning how to make this better.. we need more TV-friendly games (i.e. need some 'competition') and to kinda 'be in the right place at the right time with the right people' to make it on TV.. chances are things like TLC, PBS etc saw the potential and sought out groups for airtime. FIRST needs to be in the spotlight when the next big station is looking to work their magic. And I can honestly say that I think it's our best bet.

So if the FIRST community embraces all which is robotics, Battlebots, RobotWars and otherwise.. while continually developing their game to be more viewer-friendly.. time will take it where it's supposed to go.
