I mean, where else would a bot like Foley Freeze be picked by the #4 alliance?? Or the Monsters and Bionic Barons being picked as a 3rd round pick by the #1and 2 alliances?? Absolutely nowhere. I believe that Dave was right and that that Michigan State Championship was the hardest competition in the history of FIRST.

Perhaps, after/if other states start using the michigan system, we could have a Championship Midwest Regional or something of that sort, that way the best teams from several states could compete against each other! Someday!

Kind of like Atlanta but just one giant regional!
