The Mid-Majority continues to exist because of its reader-supporters, that small percentage of daily visitors who donate to the cause. As in years past, those who contribute financially will be rewarded with a package of items and resources that enhance the Mid-Majority experience. The Season 9 package will be the largest and most useful yet, with a record
six items and immense buck-bang.
Season 9 Jersey Shirt(Retail value: $20)Reader-supporters have always been a team, but it's only now that we've finally recognized this fact with actual laundry. You'll receive a personalized blue-on-blue-on-blue shirt with the Season 9 six-pointed star logo on the front, and your choice of number and nameplate (be tasteful, please) on the back.
Available numbers range from 1 to double zero and are first come, first served. College Basketball Prospectus 2012-13
(Retail value: $20)
There are other book-sized annual college basketball previews, but they are not very good and are always outdated by December 1, you know? Tempo-free knowledge, on the other hand, is timeless. Season 9 Members will receive a paperback copy of the 2012-13 edition shortly after it is printed. The 2011-12 edition of the book is still available and still very useful.
One-Year Basketball State Membership
(Retail value: $20)
Since the Membership system began, we've thrown in full access for 12 months to The Mid-Majority's left-brained, bespectacled brother and sister sites. If you are a current Basketball State subscriber, your account will be extended one year. If you do not have an account, your new membership will expire on November 1, 2013.
Bally Club
(Retail value: $5)
This will be the fourth year of the Bally Club, that exclusive cardmembership that gives you a list of every sub-Red Line team on a wallet-sized card, as well as access to the message boards. This year's card will be blue.
2013 TMM Bracket-Calendar
(Retail value: $5)
Once again, the package will include a sturdy 8.5-x-11 sheet with our popular Julian calendar on one side, and our iconic As-You-Go Bracket on the other side. Here's what the 2012 calendar looked like.
The Mid-Majority Foam Finger
(Retail value: $10)
Nothing promotes the idea of team togetherness like a giant foam finger. For one thing, you need to be among others who are wearing them in order to not look completely ridiculous. Because it is larger than a normal hand and is usually worn by fans of teams that are not "Number 1," the TMM Foam Finger represents a playful reminder never to take this stuff too seriously.
There are a total of 100 available packages. Each package costs
$100. Twenty dollars of each membership will go directly towards the construction, upkeep, maintenance and hosting of The Mid-Majority.
Shipping Note: The Prospectus book, shirt, calendar/bracket and foam finger will be shipped together in November. The Season 9 Bally Club card will be mailed in a small blue envelope come July.
We
will sell out. We completely sold out of Season 8 Membership packages last October, and there were 170 of those.
TMM Scholarship Program: Hot the third straight year, we're offering students the opportunity to have their packages sponsored by mid-major graduates and concerned Mid-Majorians. Click here for full details.
