Michigan State Championship 2009

[robostangs548]

I am so psyched for this, it's like an IRI at a state level and hosted by FIRST with a FIRST planning committee... Anyone in the past that thought Eastern Michigan Regional was going to have some amazing teams, re-think that... This is gonna be one of the most amazing regional competitions ever.... I think that it will definitely go down in the record books as one of the most amazing competitions ever in the state of Michigan. Can anyone say POWER HOUSES? Just look at the team list, it is absolutely incredible.... I have never been so excited for a competition... This is what I see it as.... Michigan State Championship "Where Michigan egos come to play" Is anyone else as excited?

I have been involved with FIRST all my life. Along with my family I grew up with Team 67 and within the last four years, transformed into a Robostang with Team 548 only to bring everything with me including all of the excitement, dedication, and late night work ethics that I learned from my dad, other students, and mentors since I was a child from HOT.

Now, I get the chance to play against and with HOT and all of the other great teams in my area that I have looked up too all my life, such as 503, 862, 65, 33, 66, 68, 70, 47, 217 and all of the other Michigan teams that I may have forgot.... I mean, I have been to over 20 competitions, but never have I been so excited to compete with and against all of my favorite teams. To me, this will most likely be my favorite competition of my FIRST career. I can't wait to see every one there...

The reason I made this thread is to ask everyone in Michigan if they think this is going to be an amazing regional, and what they are looking most forward to?

I think this is a pretty cool picture:
