Scary with the current format!

By that time however, we will be playing in the third dimension. Which means that wheels will not be needed and we can play 25 teams at a time on a virtual playing field.

Virtual Playing Field!! That takes the fun out of the competition and experience. I want robots crashing into each other in real time. I guess FIRST will have to change the current format to support that number of teams.

Most of FIRST is equipped with Masters' degrees or PhD's... I am pretty sure they will figure out something to do with OVER 10,000 TEAMS BY 2010... Hopefully....
