Re: Anybody really dis-like the game?

Andrew, I think you're making a grave error in your assessment of the purpose and structure of FIRST. FRC is broad enough to encompass the well-sponsored and highly organized as well as the rookie team made up of a couple kids and a Literature teacher who got a scholarship from NASA. We should celebrate the achievements of both extremes, and the progress made by those who are moving more towards the model you put forth. For nearly all FIRST teams, it takes (many) years to achieve steady corporate sponsorship and consistent mentoring. As far as I'm concerned, this game, and the way it was presented by Kamen et al, is an acknowledgment and affirmation of this aspect of FRC, and I like it.
