As a quick side note for football fans, I have an SMU football game day package if anyone is interested in "purchasing" that for your donation. It includes:

4 tickets to your SMU home game of choice in the 2019 season
4 SMU prize packs (shirts, hats, and other SMU branded material)
on-field experience prior to the game

If anyone is interested, a $150 donation will get you everything listed above!

I'm excited to share that we filmed a spot for NBC 5 news yesterday! That's me, third from the right in blue! It will be airing next Wednesday morning (8/7) with NBC's Laura Harris. We're generating some really good publicity for BvB Dallas, but we still need more donations to hit our overall mark of $650,000.



I want to have my arms covered in names to honor everyone special to you. I can't wait to go out on that field and beat Alzheimer's (and the Blondes)! Please consider donating below:

We only have 5 days left before donations are no longer accepted! We're a little further from our goal than we'd like to be (sitting at $421,000, but we're shooting for $650,000).

If you have even $10 to donate to this amazing effort, please consider donating today. We really want to present our beneficiaries with an amount that will truly make a difference.

TexAgs, I need your help! We really need to close the gap, so each of us has committed to raising an additional $300 by the time donations close on Thursday. I'm working my butt off to get some of that done offline, but I'm still in need of the generosity of the Aggie Network.

If you have anyone you want honored during the game, please consider making a contribution and I'll make sure their name is on my arm. We only have a couple more days and I want to make sure we give our beneficiaries the check they deserve. All donations will go to UT Southwestern, The Center for Brain Health, The Senior Source, and UNT Health Science Center. Please help me make a difference in the lives of those with Alzheimer's. We need to close strong!

Thank you to everyone who contributed yesterday! Today and tomorrow are our final days to receive donations, so if you want to honor somebody, please consider donating today. We still need to hit our goal. Even if you can only forego your Starbucks coffee for a couple of days and give $10, that would make an impact on Alzheimer's.

We made it on the news this morning! Check out the link below. I'm in there a couple of times (Nike headband, blue shirt). I'm pumped for Saturday and ready to play for your loved ones affected by Alzheimer's. I'll write names on my legs if I have to. Let's keep that donation tally going up!

We hit half a million today due in part to the generosity of the Aggie Family! We are still about $150k shy of our goal, which is a bit disappointing. Tomorrow really is our final day to fundraise. I'm upping my personal goal to $4000 and going to try to bust a** tomorrow to get there. If you have anything at all to give to this amazing cause, please consider donating below:

We braved the 105 degree Dallas heat today so we can leave it all on the field on Saturday. We've been on The Ticket, NBC, and Fox all to promote this cause and tell our stories of who we play for. It's grandmothers, grandfathers, moms, dads, and more. Some of those people are still with us and others passed far too early. I've never felt as passionate or proud about a cause as I do this one. Thanks and Gig 'em for all of your support.

If I get to $4000 today (I'm only $525 away...and I'll kick in the final $100 no matter what), I am willing to entertain requests from the GB within reason and board appropriate to post on here to show my appreciation for your donations.

Dump a bucket of water on my head and post video? Done
Change my signature to something you choose for the next six months? Sure

Got any other ideas?

I'll do what it takes to get us to our total. Today is the last day for you to donate. I'll be done with these posts (minus a few game day pictures and thank yous after the fact). I really appreciate all of you who have helped in this endeavor. My dad, and everyone else in the fight against Alzheimer's thank you as well.

Sent some your way.

Congrats on going beyond what you initially thought you could achieve.

Thank you!!!! It truly means so much.

Thank you...I couldn't do it without my Aggie Network.

I have about two more hours to try to wrangle in donations. If you want to be a part of the final push, I'm just shy of $5000! Please consider donating what you can. I'll post some pics of the game on Sunday! I have 22 names for my arms and WANT MORE!

General Board THANK YOU!!!! Today is game day and I am nervous, excited, grateful, and just overwhelmed with happiness that we get to play this game to tackle Alzheimer's tonight. Your contributions will make a marked difference in the lives of so many. You stepped up in a way that I never thought possible and showed me what Aggies are truly capable of. It was nothing short of amazing. I know the GB is usually full of Hotties threads and goofy topics, but many of you shared your personal stories on a very serious subject and I appreciate that. I love this place.

We are still accepting donations until halftime today when we will be presenting our check to those who work in the community to make real change.

Again, thank you so much for all you have done.
