Now that It’s come and gone, what were your feelings about it? To be honest, I didn’t like it that well. It was a little more polished, but FIRST failed to be very in depth this year. In previous years, they went through the kit and a lot of the rules. However, this year they left it out of the program. It can’t be just me that feels this way.
I actually really liked it. A lot.
It would’ve been cooler if those robots would have worked 
Agree GregT. I also wanted FIRST to go throught the rules too Bduggan04. But it was still really cool kick-off and probably the best yet.
PS Did anyone else think Dean was crying or that he sounded like he was giving his final words because he is dying of cancer? He sounded like, well, crap.

he did sound kind of choked up about something… he is normally very up-beat about everything… who knows…
also… i’ve heard reports that he didnt ride his segway all weekend… i wonder whats up…

yeah, he came and wasn’t on a segway. i was scared. maybe he’s choked up cause he accidentaly broke his favorite segway while trying to mod it? 
I thought it was a huge improvement from last year. Woddy was a bit shorter in his speaches. That was a huge bonus! haha, somebody teach that guy how to say “Novi”. its all good. it seemed like dean had something else on his mind though, that was a bit distracting. good luck everyone.
