I saw that mentioned in another thread about Team Overdrive's award.
I was shocked too, but you have a point.
Saving money is good... up until a point.
(btw, in my opinion that point hasn't been reached yet - I'm sure I'll have some comments when I feel it is)
Also, speaking of saving money, did you notice the Suppliers/Sponsors were not listed under the FIRST logo banners on the curtain behind the field this year?
I don't know if that was just for the NJ regional, or all of them, or even for that reason, but it's interesting none-the-less.
