I just think they should be able to catch silly mistakes like misspelling names. It only takes a second to look it up on TBA.

The people doing the graphics and everything likely don't know what TBA is since Robozone is a segment of a high school sports called State Champs and this is probably their only exposure to FRC.

I watch on YouTube since I don't have cable and so I can skip the Fanuc and Lawrence Tech commercials. It's nice to see the highlights so I know who the contenders will be at MSC and who to watch - for example I probably wouldn't be following the Average Joes (3620) this year without watching Robozone first - yes they're usually a pretty good team, but they're West siders who we rarely play with, but Robozone highlighted how good they are this year and now I know to look out for them.

I agree it'd be nice if they caught spelling mistakes, and they've made me wonder if I'm saying the word 'Paladins' correctly every time they mention 3618. But things like that don't make me not watch the show.

I'd really like this sort of show in other regions. Concisely edited highlight footage that shows brackets and where the teams are from would help me keep up to date on more regions without having to watch the terrible quality webcasts and hunt for match video.

Huge thanks to Jim, Dan, and everyone else who helps behind the scenes for putting the time into this.
