SMU2BCS - Write your state legislator

Postby 2ndandlong » Tue Sep 27, 2011 2:26 pm

Dear SMU Season Ticket Holders,


Here's your chance to let Texas legislators know that adding SMU to the Big 12 Conference will boost the Texas economy and is the right thing to do for Texas. Go to:


http://www.smu2bcs.com/be-heard/


Complete three simple steps, and click the SEND MESSAGE button at the bottom of the page. It takes less than a minute.


Thank you for your support!


Sincerely,
SMU2BCS

I had no issues, but it depends on the zip code you enter. Took me 30 seconds. Just filled out 10 boxes, signed the letter, and clicked submit.

I just sent mine out and Joe Strauss came back. I also added that Dallas is the largest American City without a BCS school to call home...( true correct?)

I sent mine yesterday with no kick back. I also forwarded the site to some friends and family so they could do the same.
When will I start feeling stimulated??

Technically, you said American City, not metropolitan district.
And New York clearly beats us with both. I pointed out Houston because there is clearly a regional relevance that more closely impacts a BCS discussion surrounding Big 12.
