Question of the Week!!! (8/4/04)

i really think that FIRST will be around in 10 years-- it's a great thing and yeah tons of more teams and it'll grow to have new stages how to get to the final final championship event-- it'll be tougher but in the end rewarding to those teams that make it

FIRST really is like a sport-- gonna be seen all over and teams are gonna face even more challenges --and i do feel that we'll get more teams later on from various more other countries--and then the countries might eventually perhaps not in 10 years but down the road have to battle it out against each other-- just image FIRST like the Olympics kinda of crazy to think but def. would be way awesome

but def. a more complex way to get to the finals-and more interesting challenges so Dean Kamen can keep giving us the homework

I think that FIRST will be huge in ten years. The teams and everything. hopefuly in Ten years everyone will know about FIRST and will want to be apart of it.

In ten years I see FIRST being nearly twice as big as it is now, and having twice as many regionals. There would be more experienced teams out there due to FIRST alumni starting new teams where they live. More Corporate sponsorship will be given to more teams and there would be more of a TV audience. The matches would be shown live on a "big name" station so more people would watch them. Basically I am saying the public would care more about academic activities such as FIRST. Hopefully some of this stuff will happen in less then ten years.
