While I do agree with people that marketing is a big part of the game this
year, I also agree with Frank and Wildstang. The marketing that should go
on at this competition should be the lower seeds marketing themselves to
the higher seeds. The higher seeds shouldn't have to market to the lower
seeds and prove that they should be their partner. The higher seeds have
already proven themselves. Few real world examples: any professional
sports draft...the person drafted can't say, 'You know, I already told
Team XYZ that they could draft me, so you should draft someone else,' but
the player has every right to not sign a contract with the team who drafts
him...the penalty he pays...he can't play for a year...he has to sit out
the year and go back through the draft again. A little less serious
example that us non-athletic robotics type people (hey don't get mad,
i'm one too) can relate to is 'choosing sides' on the playground, you don't
tell one captain that you already told the other captain he could pick you...
it just isn't done that way.

Well anyway, another 2 cents from
Tom
Team 275
