As a teacher on a local (Houston area) team, I would like to express my view on the move. Our team will miss Disney like everyone else. Everyone likes to be entertained. Unfortunately, this entertainment was overshadowing what FIRST represents. So many students just wanted to hurry up and get to the parks, even during competitions. This will be our 6th year, and each year we have spent a lot of time keeping the team rounded up. This year we will not have that concern. Disney was a major distraction. Any city FIRST chose would cause problems. I think Houston was as good as any. I have been to most major cities in this country and they are all very similar. We have to adjust to this change. I believe in the FIRST philosophy and feel it will be truly understood by more people in a less distractive setting. We will loose some team members because of this, but we will rebuild from a stronger base. Its time for FIRST to move on and finally become the "Super Bowl" of smarts. Long live FIRST.
