Re: Qotw [11-17-02]: Manchester or remote kickoff...

Hey, the offer still stands for you to stay at Babson before kickoff! If you can jump on a plane now...you might get into Logan before the T stops running

I still think remote kickoffs are the best idea ever. Get the thrill of being in a big room and watching it with tons of people going nuts the same time you are, and skip the hours and hours to drive back with serious rear ballast in the form of plastic totes. Though Manch-vegas has the bonus thrills of seeing Dean's house and hanging out at FIRST place, you don't need to go every year...but you should make the trek at least once.

And is Dean still pushing for "Eventually I want a regional in every state so teams don't have to travel far..."? If so, remote kickoffs were just a natural progression.

Finally, slightly OT, but is this the first Kickoff in a while without any major snow forecast?
