RE: Jess' Comment about the ESPN Footage...

Okay,

I don't know if folks have ever seen the ESPN footage...and maybe some years are better than others but....I have the 1996 footage...and it is _horrible_. The ESPN people are complete morons...and you get the impression they are just covering it because they were assigned to, they don't really care at all about FIRST. There's no excitement to thier voices, nothing. It is also so cut up that it really slows down a match. If they had just showed a few complete 2 minutes matches it would have demonstrated the real excitement of FIRST. I've always thought that the 1996 game was one of the most exciting ever....and I watched the ESPN coverage of 96 I wondered what I was watching...because it wasn't the Hexagon Havoc I saw that's for sure. I haven't seen A+E yet...but i think we should all be glad ESPN isn't butchering FIRST anymore.

-Justin
