I view the 2007-2008 historical Raas season (for me) with a great deal of satisfaction. Both our children participated in BOB and won. My wife, who is a dancer is particularly pleased because of the level of dedication that is evident.
I was pleased to see how professional BOB was at running their program. I was pleased to see how participants interacted. I was even pleased that I found a Taco Bell in downtown Chicago without getting mugged or getting a ticket.
My usual tirade about GWA also came true. I got to view all the videos of MM, DD, attended GWA, and Dallas R2B2.and some from Garden state. Things are changing fast. I hope that BOB is judged the same way next year as this may lead to more uniformity in what wins and what does not. I personally do not like the idea of "viewers choice' as it becomes a matter of how loud someone can scream or how many SMS can be sent in a short time by a team and its well wishers.
I could not go out "on the limb" this year as my daughter was participating in BOB but I did feel that it was between NYU and BU, but it was obvious that BU out shined when the dust was settled. I was vindicated about my rantings on Desidanceteam.com bulletin boards about GWA winner not winning BOB.
I wish all of you the best and Ihope that you will stay involved with Raas.
