Someone recently raised the question on Victory Briefs asking why people waste their money on the CFL Grand National. I kind of agree. Aside from the fact that all trips are expensive, it doesn't seem like CFL really brings anything to the table.
Most of the good debaters don't go. It includes fewer districts than the NFL (so it can't say "we are the national championship due to our representation of debate on the national level"). Worst of all the judging always sucks.
What motivates debaters to attend this tournament in light of these recurring issues?
