Re: [BB]: News and News
It's too bad that there is talk that this is a typo. It solves multiple things in one fell swoop:
1.) Cuts down award time on Einstein. Although the awards do serve as a natural breakup of the speeches, we are typically on the tightest of schedules and carving out some leeway could be useful.
2.) Clearly shows the best of the division. I don't really care that the best on Curie may or may not be better than Newton, since we're going to spend the rest of the offseason discussing it no matter how the decision fell. I would rather see more teams be recognized for their work then wondering why one team actually won it over another division's team.
3.) Growth, growth, and growth. More national-level WFAs mean more areas of the country they can be locally associated with, means more growth for the award and the mission. There's tons of great deserving people out there - and like #2, more in this case isn't a terrible thing.

If anything, I believe Battle Bots is in the best interest of FIRST. Battlebots helps to create an interest in robotics, and FIRST gives us the opportunity to participate in a robotics program. - Adare180 [more]
