Overall, I thought the show was great. But, being a member of one of the two featured teams, I don't exactly have an objective opinion. As good as the show was, I do know that there was some much more interesting/bizarre footage that the camera crews collected, that would have made an even more entertaining show (although it may not have done much to promote FIRST - most of you know how things tend to loosen up about 1:00 in the morning on the day before shipping the robot...)

On a more serious note, I do want to offer a public apology on behalf of our entire team for an unfortunate remark that was recorded and aired near the end of the show. A statement was made that was disparaging of another team. The phrasing of the comment was unfortunate, unnecessary, and unsportsmanlike. It reflects poorly on the values we, and all of FIRST, try to embody. For us, it cast a sour note near the end of an otherwise very positive program, and we are sorry.
