I took a poll from people living near me, and the numbers came back just as I thought. 1/60 people in my area in SC have NASATV as a part of their cable/satellite package. Now while I know that the streaming is an option for anyone with an Internet connection..here's my thought that has been shared among many whom I've spoken to.

WE NEED ESPN BACK. I don't even necessarily think it has to be ESPN, it could be CBS, FOX, ABC...whomever. There needs to be at least one day of sports style coverage of the championship event...even if it's only finals day. This would be a great step towards getting FIRST out there......
I would argue that even more people have access to an internet connection then ESPN. Plus it's easier to share the broadcast if you only have to click one button to tell all of your Facebook friends and Twitter followers about it.
Add in that anyone can watch it on their own schedule and it becomes more of a video to pass around and discuss and can then lead the viewer to more information on FIRST itself. All through the same platform.

YouTube is reaching a point where the content is longer form, better produced, and easier to access then some television shows. There are now professional production channels producing amazing content exclusively for YouTube. I think this is where entertainment as a whole is headed and I don't see why FIRST shouldn't be the first sport to be covered via YouTube.

To borrow a hockey quote: “A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.”
Television is where the puck is, I think the internet is where the puck is going to be, and FIRST should be right there with it.
