All-Star Is It Fair That Pd Bids Give The Same Amount To West And East Coast Teams When Worlds Is Held In Fl?

i think, IMO, it would suck to be from the West Coast and have to compete at 8am, which is like 5 am their time... that's all lol.

Been there ......Done that!!! I was first in 06' , 07' and it was not fun at all!

actually.....she said it was "funny" that FL teams could get paid bids. Seeing as how you're on Rock Solid.....I figured you'd probably be FOR FL teams getting paid bids.

"funny" that we don't have to fly to worlds but still get the money. We have been on paid bids before it is still costly for us even though we don't fly... I just never saw her putting down the idea of us getting paid bids...

why......

the point of a paid bid is, of course, to fund the trip. But you can't imitate the prestige of EARNING a full paid bid. Generally, teams that receive full paid bids have a good chance of doing very well at worlds. It gives the team a label.....that they're something to look at and that they have a shot.


i'm sorry......you're just degrading the idea of a FL team even trying to get a full paid bid.

i realize how great it is to earn a full paid bid. i have one and you cant compare earning it to anything. im not saying they dont deserve them in any way.. they could deserve them just as much as the next team. you obviously dont understand what i meant so just dont worry about it.
