Hey, I just returned home from the Brine thing. I DO see what you mean! I thought that the evaluators were EVALUATING when they were comparing notes, and speaking with one another on the field. Since so many have mentioned it, I guess that they WERE all secretly plotting to only choose their team kids, OVER those who deserve it. I NOW see this, and apologize for not acting like a paranoid, disgruntled nerd all along.
