If you look at the list of chairman's award winners and finalists and winners you will see the most of them also usually have spectacular robots (1,47,65). I think that is a demonstration of a well-rounded team that deserves recognition.
I believe the chairman's award and the animation to a lesser extent allows the FIRST program to be very broad. We have people on our chariman's team that probably couldnt pick a hammer out of a line-up and we have people on our animation crew that probably couldn't spell anmation. (Yeah, I know I spelled that wrong and I'm just kidding about it anyway.) What I am trying to get at is that the chairman's award is about more than showing FIRST how we have spread the message and about more than the build crew throwing together a presentation in two days just to have a submisison. It is about getting more people involved that aren't necessarily interested in the down and dirty robot building.
